Outline of Final Research Achievements

In this research, we aimed to systematically and critically consider various trends of modern natural ethics through examination of F. G. Juenger's postwar thought. Progress on natural ethics research, such as publishing three papers on reproductive medical technology, was observed. On the other hand, We could not do enough consideration about the significance of Juenger's "cosmology" idea, and the comparison with various thoughts after the war. It is the greatest achievement that by repeatedly conducting research sessions, we have rolled up to the translation publication of "Perfektion der Technik" and attached a commentary equivalent to the research paper to this. In the future, after safely completing the translation publication, we would like to continue research on F. G. Juenger and deepen the research on natural ethics while seeing the reaction of readers to this translation.
