Summary/Abstract |
Ethics took shape in two different ways. One, in ancient times, when humans in order to understand environment started asking questions and kept trying to answer them by arguments and conjecture. This took them to what we now know as the religious path. In those earlier times religion suggested how human society began. At that time laws governing human behaviour were made in the name of God. At that time the concept of morality also went in the name of God. Two, in recent times, that is, during the last few hundred years, development of science based knowledge in a vast variety of fields developed a scientific world view. This world view was not based on opinions based on limited knowledge. This was based on knowledge that was huge, was verifiable and was expanding.

Summary/Abstract |
Earlier the world as a whole was a conflict -zone. People living in a particular region had norms and morality which served them well. But that morality was at the cost of people living in other regions because of conflicts between them. So, that morality involved inhumanity towards those living outside their regions. Now due to growth of science, industry and technology, the world seems to be coming closer to all; the unfamiliarity that prevailed earlier between people of different regions is diminishing and familiarity is growing. People around the globe are becoming aware of this. innumerable institutions that are taking shape are spreading the awareness about the inadequacy of old thinking, ideas and morals. Take Europe for instance. Different regions or countries of Europe were indulging in prolonged wars with each other. This, after the Second World War, changed. They realized the futility of it all, and established various institutions like the European Union. Thus reducing and extinguishing the con?icts between them, leading thereby not only to a prolonged period of peace but to unheard of prosperity.

The first ideology that developed in Europe after the Renaissance was Liberalism. It stood for formal parliamentary democracy, laissez faire economy, secular education and Public Administration and, an egalitarian legal and judicial system. It stood for individual’s freedom, growth and welfare. However, some historical developments and confusions led to its downfall.
