CFP: Normative Implications of Moral Psychology
By S. Matthew Liao
University of Alabama at Birmingham
NOVEMBER 11-13, 2011
SUBMISSION DEADLINE: AUGUST 31, 2011
The University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) invites papers for a conference on the normative implications of recent work in moral psychology, broadly construed. The conference will be held in Birmingham, AL on November 11-13, 2011.
The conference, to be hosted by the Department of Philosophy and the Center for Ethics and Values in the Sciences, will examine connections between moral psychology and normative issues in law, bioethics, social and politics issues, well-being, and similar topics. We welcome interdisciplinary research involving psychology, neuroscience, law, medicine, public health, political science, economics, game theory, and related fields.

Utilitarianism and the Brain
By Guy Kahane
Everybody’s heard about Joshua Greene’s fMRI studies of moral judgement. Many have also heard about the study by Koenigs, Young, Adolphs, Cushman, Tranel, Cushman, Hauser and Damasio of patients with prefrontal damage. In a communication I co-authored with Nick Shackel and which has just come out in Nature, we criticise the methodology used in these studies.
