Based on a user-oriented design approach and a moral literacy framework, the module was designed to be u…Read more

6The Aristotelian RobotPhilosophy Today 68 (2): 327-340. 2024.In this essay an engineer and a philosopher, after many conversations, develop an argument for why the Aristotelian version of virtue ethics is the most promising way to develop what we call artificial moral, social agents, i.e. robots. This, evidently, applies to humans as well. There are several claims: first, that humans are not born moral, they are socialized into morality; second, that morality involves affect, emotion, feeling, before it engages reason; third, that how a moral being feels …Read more

3The Good CitizenRoutledge. 1999.In The Good Citizen, nine well-known scholars discuss the idea - and ideal - of citizenship. The writers are female and male, white, black, Asian, and Latina/o.
