:: Rationalization of ethics ::

In studying Weber this semester, I'm learning about his concepts of ethics, particularly rationalization and its effects on societies.

Perhaps that's why the whole debate about performance enhancing drugs in sports is interested to follow. And, as Harry Siegel points out in the New Partisan. the hue and cry is often not for the valid ethical and honour issues that have arisen, but rather the rationalized issue of whether or not the record books need to be adjusted.

How very po-mo!
