Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to explore some of the ethical contours of CHRD. In order to do so, it will introduce the theoretical bases which inform a critical understanding of ethics and of the ways in which morality can be leveraged to the advantage of some and the disadvantage of others. The discussion that follows will comprise three subsections Firstly, the section “What is morality and ethics?” draws on the work of Williams and MacIntyre to outline a distinction between these related concepts. Secondly, “What is a human resource?” outlines the implicit morality of standard approaches to HRD and explores their limitations. Finally, “What is a human?: Toward an Ethics of CHRD” moves beyond the limitations of standard approaches to HRD and outlines some of the positive bases for ethics of CHRD.
