International Journal of Ethical Leadership, Special Volume 3

The mission of The International Journal of Ethical Leadership is to spread awareness of the fact that every worthwhile human endeavor requires the application and embodiment of ethical leadership to succeed, endure, and produce positive outcomes for present and future generations. The editor's aim is to expand the transdisciplinary, international conversation that is ongoing around the question of what ethical leadership requires. Their hope is that with each issue of this journal, they are able to highlight a range of perspectives on ethical leadership in theory and action around the globe. Their intention is not to endorse particular opinions, but to host a trusted forum for readers to explore a diversity of views. The Inamori International Center for Ethics and Excellence at Case Western Reserve University awards an annual prize for the best thesis in military ethics to promote active involvement in the study and application of military ethics. This special volume of IJEL includes our 2024 and 2025 first place winners theses in English, Spanish, and French, as well as a summary of our 2024 second place winner's thesis in all three languages.
