Moderne Ethik - Ethik der Moderne: Fünf Thesen aus ordonomischer Sicht

  • Pies, Ingo

Abstract

Dieser Beitrag formuliert fünf Thesen zum Theoriedesign einer modernen Ethik. Sie lauten: 1. Eine moderne Ethik muss als eine Ethik der Moderne entwickelt werden, als eine Ethik der modernen (Welt-)Gesellschaft. 2. Die vornehmste Aufgabe der Ethik besteht darin, vor Moral(isierung) zu warnen, und zwar insbesondere deshalb, weil die öffentliche Moralkommunikation in vielen Fällen Gefahr läuft, die Verwirklichung moralischer Anliegen zu be- oder gar zu verhindern. 3. Die moderne Gesellschaft konstitu(tionalis)iert sich als Wachstumsgesellschaft, indem sie lernt, mittels geeigneter institutioneller Arrangements Wettbewerb als Anreizinstrument funktional einzusetzen. 4. Das Signum der modernen Gesellschaft sind Diskrepanzen zwischen Sozialstruktur und Semantik. 5. Diskrepanzen zwischen Sozialstruktur und Semantik können in eine Kolonialisierung des Systems durch die Lebenswelt münden, insbesondere durch den Wunsch, lebensweltliche Moralvorstellungen imperativisch implementieren zu wollen, was dann oft – durchaus ungewollt – die missliche Folge hat, die gesellschaftlichen Funktionssysteme nicht besser in Kraft, sondern gerade umgekehrt außer Kraft zu setzen.
