Introduction -- Chapter 1: The Role of Public Practical Reasoning in Good Governance -- Chapter 2: Introducing the Cases -- Chapter 3: Western Consequence-based ethics: Cost versus Benefits -- Chapter 4: Principle-based ethics: ‘means’ versus ‘ends’ -- Chapter 5: Human Well-being: Moving Beyond Social Welfare and Human Rights -- Chapter 6: Care, community, compassion and virtue: Decolonizing our Moral Landscape -- Chapter 7: Revisiting the Cases: The Ethical toolbox in Praxis -- Conclusion: Ethics of Governance: Moral Limits of Policy Decisions. .

The Ethics of Governance: Moral Limits of Policy Decisions offers a toolbox drawn from normative ethics which finds applications in public governance, primarily focusing on policy making and executive action. It includes ethical concepts and principles culled from different philosophical traditions, ranging from more familiar Western theories to non-Western ethical perspectives, thereby providing a truly global, decolonized and expanded normative lens on issues of governance. The book takes a unique and original approach; it demonstrates the use of the ethical toolbox in the context of actual examples of governance challenges. Taking three major case studies each representing an aspect of human-human and/or human-nature and/or human-animal relationship, the book attempts to show the significance of public practical reasoning in policy decisions with the aim of arriving at reasonable responses. Acknowledging the challenges that policy makers often face, the book highlights the fact that policy making is hardly an exercise yielding a black-or-white solution; rather it involves finding the most reasonable normative outcome (course of action) in a given situation, especially employing an expanded understanding of values including well-being, sustainability, interdependence and community. This effort that helps bridge the gap between ethical theorists and policy practitioners exemplifies the necessary role of ‘engaged philosophy’ in public governance. In the major case studies, Boxes offer facts and figures along with pertinent ethical questions that have been raised and discussed. Aiming to aid the engagement of a diverse audience including non-philosophy readers, each chapter also includes Boxes containing examples, shorter case studies, at-a-glance charts, and tables with comprehensive ethical tools for a quick recap.
