Description	In spite of the on-going globalization in many fields, the ethics of radiation protection is still discussed almost exclusively in terms of concepts of %22Westernů moral philosophy such as utilitarianism or deontology. A cross-cultural discourse in this field is only beginning. Beauchamp and Childress in their %22Principles of Biomedical Ethics%22 suggest that there exists a %22common morality%22 which is %22not relative to cultures or individuals, because it transcends both%22. They propose four cross-culturally valid principles for decision making in medicine: respect for autonomy, non-maleficence, beneficence, and justice. I suggest that their approach can serve as a model for radiation protection as well. The four principles can form an alternative ethical basis for the recommendations of the International Commission on Radiological Protection. I also propose three additional principles that seem to be of relevance, namely concern for the underprivileged, intergenerational equity, and precaution. These may provide fresh insight into some problems of radiation protection which are difficult to resolve with the current mix of utilitarian and deontological arguments.
