My area of expertise is philosophy of science and ethics, mainly in relation to interdisciplinary and participatory research in the field of food, agriculture and environment.
In philosophy of science I place myself in the pragmatist tradition from Charles S. Peirce. I work with a perspectivist framework in line with Ronald Giere’s scientific perspectivism, but with a cross-disciplinary focus. Important theoretical fields in my work are semiotics, biosemiotics and autopoietic and social systems theory.
In ethics I am inspired by Hans Jonas’ ethics of responsibility and systemic approaches in environmental ethics. I focus on the ethics of knowledge and science as well as on ethics in relation to societal, technological and ecological systems, including recent systemic ethical concepts such as sustainability, precaution and ecological justice.
