| Title Proper | Ethics as an enabler of public policy |
| Language | ENG |
| Author | Goodin, Robert E |
| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Ethics constrains us. But ethics can also act as an ‘enabler’, helping to secure compliance with public policies. Basing policies on ethical principles helps the public know what is required of them by public policies. Framing policies in those ways also primes people to think in terms of their own ethically based reasons for action. Basing policies on ethical principles can assist in securing the cooperation of potential veto players by creating cooperative norms and a culture of trust. |
