Beyond Relativism to Ethical Decision Making

Abstract

This article examines the ethical conundrum of educational decision makers when faced with a plethora of conflicting value-based decisions. It offers an analysis of a well-known fable as the foil to demonstrate the problematic nature of ethical relativism and postmodern ethics in resolving that conundrum while advocating the use of five core commitments that enable reasonable, consistent, and justifiable warrants for ethical choices.
