Abstract: Abstract The concluding chapter reviews the fundamental remarks of the analysis. One of the main tasks of the field of development ethics is to avoid the hindrance of ethical development by partial intellectual approaches. The application of development ethics to international development must ultimately contribute to this goal. The book explicitly underlines the methodological position that an alternative framework needs to be clearly specified. The particular results of the analysis of the ethical postures that overlap with international development are discussed, and specific alternative ethical viewpoints of development ethics in a political economy context are singled out. After evaluating the dominant perspectives (i.e., neoclassical economics and economic neoliberalism) in contemporary international development, the book offers an alternative comprehensive framework to development ethics.
