Summary/Abstract: The author considers the subject and content of certain fields of applied ethics: bioethics, medical ethics, environmental, social, media, legal, and business ethics, and the ethics of science and technology. In the author's view, the position of applied or practical ethics lies between the general, philosophical, meta-ethical and the specific moral situation of life as lived. It follows from this that applied ethics is also a reflective, theoretical discipline which subjects behaviour in a given area of life to ethnical scrutiny.
