Résumé : L’ouvrage de D Weinstock permet une approche renouvelée de l’éthique professionnelle, grâce à
une conception restreinte du champ de la morale. Au regard des questions posées à l’éducation par un
monde ou le pluralisme axiologique domine, il semble qu’il y ait matière à enseignements pour les
professionnels de l’éducation en contexte scolaire.
