Philosophical Aspects of Dual Use Technologies
Science and Engineering Ethics, 2008The term dual use technologies refers to research and technology with the potential both to yield valuable scientific knowledge and to be used for nefarious purposes with serious consequences for public health or the environment. There are two main approaches to assessing dual use technologies: pragmatic and metaphysical. A pragmatic approach relies on

Dual Use and the Ethical Responsibility of Scientists
Archivum Immunologiae et Therapiae Experimentalis, 2008The main normative problem in the context of dual use is to determine the ethical responsibility of scientists especially in the case of unintended, harmful, and criminal dual use of new technological applications of scientific results. This article starts from an analysis of the concepts of responsibility and complicity, examining alternative options ...

Given that in the future civil neuroscience could be subject to dual use in the development of novel chemical and biological weapons the question for neuroscientists is what should they do to help protect their benignly-intended work from misuse? The dilemma for scientists is illustrated at the start of this chapter by reference to a similar ethical ...
