  • Seventh International Conference on Applied Ethics (October 26-28, 2012)
    'Risk, Justice and Liberty'


  • Call for Papers

    We are delighted to announce the Seventh International Conference on Applied Ethics on 26-28 October 2012 at Hokkaido University, Sapporo, Japan.

    We invite the submission of papers related to (but not limited to) the following topics:
    meta/normative ethics, bio/medical ethics, engineering ethics, ethics of science and technology, information ethics, environmental ethics, business ethics, feminist ethics, international/global ethics.

    Since the main theme of this year's conference is 'Risk, Justice and Liberty', we particularly encourage contributions addressing the theme; however, we also welcome submissions on topics that address social, cultural, political, economic areas of applied ethics beyond the conference theme.
