Ethical Culture and Management
2022
An unfortunate marker of the current times is the scale of unethical behavior and corporate corruption committed by business leaders. A powerful antecedent of unethical behavior is organizational culture. This chapter discusses what constitutes and drives an ethical culture. It defines the concept of ethical culture and reviews different approaches that have been used to measure ethical culture in organizations. The Corporate Ethical Virtues model is reviewed in more detail as one example of a reliable and valid way to operationalize ethical organizational cultures. Finally, specific management strategies to maintain and minimize potential threats to an ethical culture are also provided. pe…

The structure of the sporting community: a dialogical proposal
2015
Este artículo se propone mostrar que la filosofía anglo-americana y la continental han de trabajar de forma conjunta dentro del área de la filosofía del deporte. Para ello, analizaré y aplicaré el concepto de la “comunidad comunicativa”, que se encuentra en la ética del discurso de Apel y Habermas, en relación al deporte. Algunos autores han tratado de realizar esta tarea con anterioridad, por ejemplo, Raúl Sebastian Solanes, Robert L. Simon y William J. Morgan. Por lo tanto, analizaré sus propuestas de modo crítico. Al hacerlo, mostraré que hemos de luchar por conseguir una comunidad deportiva más integrativa que la propuesta hasta el día de hoy, con el fin de dar sentido al deporte contem…
Gestalt/Gestalt Theory
2020
Gestalt is a concept introduced to solve the problems of unity, connection and order that objects manifest in experience. Philosophers trained at Franz Brentano’s teaching began to work on it to address epistemological and ontological questions about perception, cognition and the structure of objects. This work was seminal for Gestalt psychology, from the research of the Graz and Berlin Schools, carried on by Cesare Musatti, Fabio Metelli, Gaetano Kanizsa, Paolo Bozzi in Padua and Trieste, Albert Michotte and Paul Fraisse in Louvain, to that of Edgar Rubin and David Katz, but also of Karl Buhler, Egon Brunswik and Ludwig Kardos in Wien. Common is the tenet that the world looks as neither a …

Las columnas de Arturo Pérez-Reverte entre descortesía y virtud
2020
Impoliteness is a prevailing feature in Arturo Pérez-Reverte’s columns. Against all odds, it has a big argumentative effectiveness, since it allows the locutor to show an image of himself which is virtuous, that is a sincere, credible and, for this reason, persuasive. After all, as Aristotle states in his Rhetoric, persuasion depends on locutor’s ability to project an attractive ethos (self-image). Among the qualities that guarantees this attraction, the Stagirite includes the virtue, i.e. the speaker’s ability to tell frankly his/her opinions and ideas. In Pérez-Reverte’s columns, the realization of this quality is exactly what determines a frankness bordering sometimes on impoliteness. Ho…
Virtuousness in Sports Organizations: Examination of Ethical Organizational Culture and Its Virtues

The purpose of this paper is to examine the ethical organizational culture of top sports organizations in Finland.

We applied a mixed methods approach. We gathered the empirical material through questionnaires and interviews with representatives from Finland’s top sports organizations. The findings show that the questionnaire participants evaluated the perceptions of ethical organizational culture of the Finnish top sports organizations as being quite ethical. The findings also show that the ethical organizational…
A Virtue Ethical Exploration of Multi-Attractedness
2018
Tässä artikkelissa tarkastelen moniviehättyneisyyden käsitettä hyve-etiikan kontekstissa. Moniviehättyneisyys on luonteenpiirteen tapainen ominaisuus, jonka kantaja tulee päätöksiä tehdessään ristiriitaisten näkökulmien puoleensa vetämäksi. Tavoitteeni on syventää moniviehättyneisyyttä koskevaa ymmärrystä selvittämällä, miten se voidaan Aristoteelisen hyve-etiikan piirissä määritellä. Tarkastelun lähtökohtana on Lehtosen näkemys siitä, että moniviehättyneisyys saattaa olla hyödyksi päätöksenteolle. Tutkimuksen aineiston muodostaa moniviehättyneisyyden teoria, joka muodostuu useista erillisistä teoreettisista kirjoituksista. Filosofisen tarkastelun viitekehys muodostuu Nikomakhoksen etiikan …
Elisabeth on Free Will, Preordination, and Philosophical Doubt
2021
Elisabeth is widely known as a critic of René Descartes' account of mind--body interaction and scholarly interpretations of her view on the will most often pose the question about the freedom of the will in relation to bodily impulses such as the passions. This chapter takes a different perspective and focuses on the problem of the compatibility of free will and providence, as it is discussed in a sequence of six letters that Elisabeth and Descartes wrote between September 1645 and January 1646. The chapter focuses on this specific metaphysical problem in order to ask what Elisabeth's remarks on the topic can tell about her general philosophical method as well as about her particular philos…
