Joseph Fletcher was an American theologian and ethicist best known for his development of situation ethics, a moral framework that emphasizes the importance of love and context in ethical decision-making. Born in 1905, he served as a professor of ethics at the University of Southern California and wrote several influential works, including "Situation Ethics: The New Morality" published in 1966. Fletcher argued that love should be the guiding principle in moral choices rather than rigid rules or laws. He has had a lasting impact on contemporary discussions of ethics, particularly in relation to issues like bioethics and social justice.
