Fundamental Stepping-Stones to an Utilitarian Ethics of International Relations
In: Studia diplomatica: Brussels journal of international relations, Band 58, Heft 4, S. 171-195
ISSN: 0770-2965
What are the ethical principles on which normative or prescriptive judgment can be based? To answer that, a thorough knowledge of related problems is needed, implying the relationship between the realms of norms and facts, starting with a feasibility study of objectives that include a cooperation between political scientists and moral or political philosophers in order to choose appropriate norms, aims and objectives. A consequentialist analysis that uses four practical criteria, intensity, non-destruction, stability, and authenticity. The criterion of intensity is positive because it concerns objectives with highly valued needs. The criterion of non-destruction is negative since it points to side-effects of the realization of certain values that could be detrimental to other values, which might even have a higher ranking, resulting in the need of weighing the pros and the cons against each other. The criteria of stability (a social feasibility test) and authenticity spell out the preconditions that limit the possibilities of realization of the intrinsic values denoted by the first two criteria. In the case of international politics those preconditions are closely linked with the anarchical structure of the international society and the limits of government policies. References. O. van Zijl
Het vlaams international cultuurbeleid

An article on how the Flemish government has used the new legislation to found its own international cultural policy and if its aims were solely cultural, or mixed with political and/or economic gains. Up till now cultural policies have been mainly policies of subvention and not enough autonomous, since political and economical aims were found too important. Regarding autonomy, the results have not been brilliant; international subventions, regulated by external factors, have been mainly of a political and economical nature, which diminishes the structural practices, leaving a tight budget for an autonomous, authentic policy. However, compared with Holland and the Walloon provinces, the results seem better. The functionality in Walloon remains highly influenced by international merchandising goals, and Holland has accepted the existing and hard to avoid co-relation with other domains, but their idea of an autonomous policy seems rather individualistic. As regards the EU: its nature is too economical to make for a successful autonomy. Future aims seem worthwhile however in a cooperation of a Dutch language union, an international cooperation thus, between the Netherlands and Flemish cultural strategies. It is a costly business, but promoting Dutch language contributions to the international scene provide some good basics for an internationalized policy, to which the Flemish-Dutch Cultural Policy Committee (Commissie Cultureel Verdrag Vlaanderen-Nederland) has given its approval.
