Ratio, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In bioethics, two sorts of normative categories are commonly used. These can be split into two families: the deontic categories, such as ‘right’, ‘ought to’ and ‘requirement’, and the evaluative categories, including ‘good’, ‘bad’, ‘better than’ and ‘the best’. While other normative concepts such as ‘virtue’ and ‘vice’ have also been discussed,

Automated Reasoning over Deontic Action Logics with Finite Vocabularies [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2014 In this paper we investigate further the tableaux system for a deontic action logic we presented in previous work. This tableaux system uses atoms (of a given boolean algebra of action terms) as labels of formulae, this allows us to embrace parallel ...

Resilience and Sorites in the Normative Domain and Beyond
Theoria, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The sorites paradox is central to theories on vagueness, which aim to explain apparent contradictions. Some theories, however, imply sharp cut‐offs where we would, intuitively, not expect them. This paper invokes the notion of normative resilience to address this issue.

, 2022 peer reviewedDefeasible deontic logic uses techniques from non-monotonic logic to address various challenges in normative reasoning, such as prima facie permissions and obligations, moral dilemmas, deontic detachment, contrary-to-duty reasoning and legal

Topics in Cognitive Science, EarlyView.Abstract Our ability to imagine alternatives to reality is central to everyday cognition. Our competence in reasoning depends not only on our capacity to envisage the relevant facts, but also on our proficiency in simulating alternatives to them. I discuss how our skill in making deductive inferences depends on imagining possibilities. To illustrate, I

Traditionally, citizenship education often equates citizenship literacies with positive civic engagement, overlooking the potential value of illiteracies as forms of resistance ...

Free Choice Permission in Defeasible Deontic Logic
, 2020 Free Choice Permission is one of the challenges for the formalisation of norms. In this paper, we follow a novel approach that accepts Free Choice Permission in a restricted form. The intuition behind the guarded form is strongly aligned with the idea of
