Sažetak
It can be argued that bioethics promotes a common view concerning the protection of (all) living beings. Mountaineers, undoubtedly, have some kind of analogous way of thinking concerning their relation to the natural environment. Their worldview, primarily connected to their values and norms, can be best investigated through the established codes of ethics and similar declarations. This paper analyses the impressive corpus of these written rules, arguing for two main theses. First, codes and declarations of mountaineering ethics show important and sophisticated kinds of peculiar worldviews related to the protection of the entire environment. Second, such worldviews combine different kinds of knowledge from a vast number of disciplines and sciences, but, more importantly, it includes an enormous number and kinds of different perspectives and experiences. Demonstrably, then, mountaineering ethics is not just interesting for bioethical investigation, but it makes a strong case for arguing that the mountaineer’s worldview is an example of true instantiation of core bioethical values and norms in the everyday life of a mountaineer.
