Talk: Transhumanism in Conflict with Disability Justice

Mon, 08 Aug 2022 13:37:37 GMT

Dr. Melinda Hall will discuss the primary arguments in her book, The Bioethics of Enhancement. She draws out the conflict between transhumanist thinking and disability justice projects. She argues that transhumanist arguments in support of radical human enhancement are inimical to disability justice projects. Transhumanist thinkers, the strongest promoters of human enhancement, and fellow travelers who claim enhancement is a moral obligation, make arguments that rely on the denigration of disabled embodiment and lives.

Societas Ethica

Wed, 24 Aug 2022 22:00:00 GMT

The 58th annual conference "SOCIETAS ETHICA" focuses on Vulnerability & Integrity and takes place August 25-28, 2022.

The moral impact of vulnerability, especially human vulnerability, has been intensely discussed in recent years. It seems that human vulnerability offers a foundation to better understand morality, especially regarding the moral duties of beneficence and nonmaleficence. But it might also enable a deepened understanding of concepts of autonomy and justice.

While the concept of vulnerability has been intensely discussed there is far less ethical discussion on the concept of integrity. Therefore, this conference suggests clarifying the moral relevance of vulnerability by reference to a better understanding the concept of integrity and vice versa. The topic will be discussed on a fundamental conceptual and normative level, as well as with regard to different areas of applied ethics (medical ethics, nursing ethics, political ethics, ecological ethics).
