Environmental ethicists do not often notice the power of stories to shape attitudes about our environment and its inhabitants. I argue that a pragmatist understanding of morality enables stories—and narratives generally—to shape attitudes and beliefs that have objective moral legitimacy. The Lorax, as well as other stories and narrative accounts, are not just children’s stories, but are essential tools for expressing objective moral concern about our environment. Michael Sandel’s (2009) book Justice (along with the moral thought of William James and John Dewey) expresses a pragmatist perspective about justice and the good that accords with this conclusion. The Lorax demands justice for the human environment.

Among the various proposed ultrasound laws, a few have provisions that either provide the option for the pregnant woman to hear the heartbeat or require that the heartbeat be played and merely give the woman the option to somehow avert her ears. I will argue that these heartbeat provisions actually belie the argument that these laws are intended to assist autonomous choosing. Since the information could be provided just as easily through a factual statement (“The fetus has aheartbeat”), it cannot be justified to involve emotions in a way that the pregnant woman did not autonomously choose for herself.

Scientific management introduced a novel way of organizing work and measuring productivity into the modern workplace. With a stopwatch and a clever method of analysis, Frederick Winslow Taylor is either acclaimed or reviled, depending on the audience, for giving industrial/organizational consultancy a groundbreaking tool: the efficiency study. What is less well known is that the American pragmatist John Dewey criticized scientific management for its dualistic assumptions, for treating workers as pure doers or “muscle” and management as pure thinkers or “brains” in an efficient, though inhumane, work process. The first section of this paper examines the similarities and differences between Dewey’s and Taylor’s respective conceptions of science and management. In the second section, I consider Dewey’s critique of scientific management in his book Democracy and Education. The paper concludes with some thoughts about the implications of Dewey’s critique of Taylorism for organizational theory and industrial relations today.
