This point is explored through a consideration of four processual ethical structures, each of which can constitute a point of reference for the exercise of a responsibility.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Ethically Structured Processes questions dualities that are very firmly established in the West, such as \"theoretical\/practical\" and \"descriptive\/prescriptive\", through a detour into historical Chinese traditions of thought. The generality of the thesis concerning ethical processes is tested, in a privileged way, on the case of the \"Invisible Hand\". Is this notion based on a philosophically and ethically consistent concept of \"freedom\"?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVirgil Cristian Lenoir\u003c\/b\u003e is a consultant, philosopher and doctor at Paris-Sorbonne University, France.
