Peter Ulrich (* 1948 in Berne) is owner of the chair for restaurant economics at the University of St.Gallen. It represents a integrativen economiceconomics beginning in such a way specified.

Theory

For Peter Ulrich goes it in the restaurant ethics around clarifying "literally doubtful the relationship between economic special logic and ethical reason of reason, become, on and it in more futurable to determine life-helpful way again. "(Ulrich 2001:20) with it there is to be an economiceconomics Primat of the criteria of the life helpfulness before the logic of the market. In the overview there are three fundamental tasks of the restaurant ethics:

1. The criticism at the "pure" economic reason (economistism)
2. Clarifying the ethical criteria of a life-helpful economy
3. The determination of the "places" of the moral of managing

In order to work against the constantly progressing tendency to the economistism, Ulrich sees however "the as the most important task of economiceconomics basic reflection "(Ulrich 2001:15).

Peter Ulrich deals, like also Karl Homann, from the outset with the common opinion of the two-world conception of economic on the one hand and ethical reason on the other hand. The specific basic idea of the integrativen beginning is about to overcome this two-world conception "in (integrativen) an idea of socialeconomic which have the reason-ethical criterion already in itself. "(Ulrich 2001:17) it concerns to integrate the economic system with its own logic into "rational forms of political-economic will formation "(Ulrich 2001:335). The market forces must be merged into the ethical-political principles of an probably-arranged society. Ulrich writes: "It belongs to the coining/shaping characteristics of the integrativen beginning that it understands political ethics of the imbedding of the free-market economy in this sense restaurant economics as a piece into an probably-arranged society of free humans. "(Ulrich 2001:17) the integrative beginning holds out consistently an reason-ethical point of view (moral POINT OF view). It concerns to it a methodically disciplined ethical reflection, which sets before all socio-economic and political conditions. The position of humans and economics is completely clearly fixed thereby: Since the economics is a created by humans, it helpful instrument, no moral consideration can have it as starting point. Starting point can be only reason-talented humans.
