Research Abstract |
In the process of this research, we reached the conclusion that the fundamental problem in the field of 'life and human action' is that we are facing a confrontation of various opinions of the human action to life. In other words, the problem of confrontation and agreement in the field of life is situated in the basis of ethical values concerning human life. Furthermore, an essential subject is social consensus building in the promotion of research process of the ethical value structure of life. As for the intervention of the human act to life and as for the consideration of the ethical value structure, the problem of consensus building becomes important. We cannot expect any solution without considering the actual problem and get over the differences in human society. The subject of consensus building is not limited to the territory of life, but it would clearly be a core of other various ethical problems such as environmental issues.
