  • GLOBAL MENTAL HEALTH: CHALLENGES FOR A GLOBAL ETHICS Fernando Lolas Filosofía global ethics differential ethics Global mental health This paper aims at presenting a perspective on a global ethics useful for conducting and evaluating research on global mental health. It includes the proposal of expanding the scope of “global” to include different aspects of cultural diversity and a plea for a “differential ethics” approach that accepts diversity and sociocultural determinants of health. The contention is advanced that ethics is a linguistic justification of moral norms based on customs, beliefs, and traditions. Besides its founda - tion on rational or religious beliefs, ethics should also be conceived of as a way of attaining human fulfillment of interests and expectations in the context of different forms of humanity. 2016 artículo científico 0717-5906 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=55446795002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=554 Acta Bioethica application/pdf Universidad de Chile Acta Bioethica (Chile) Num.1 Vol.22
