Alsua Ruth Alas Jorge Carneiro Administración y Contabilidad Asia Europe Latin America moral philosophy institutionalism This study examined the ethical ideologies of men versus women, and younger versus older respondents in five countries across three continents. Results show differences among the countries studied. As expected, idealism was highest in Chile, followed by Estonia, China and Brazil. Idealism was lowest in the USA. Relativism was highest in Estonia, China and Brazil, followed by the United States and Chile. Americans from the US tended to have a more exceptionist moral philosophy, whereas Chileans tended to endorse a more absolutist ideology. Age and gender differences were also salient; younger respondents showed lower idealism and higher relativism than their older counterparts, whereas men tended to be more subjectivist and women more absolutist. 2012 artículo científico 1012-8255 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=71623399004 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=716 Academia.
