Artefactual Agency and Artefactual Moral Agency
2013This chapter takes as its starting place that artefacts, in combination with humans, constitute human action and social practices, including moral actions and practices.

Etude de la relation paradoxale entre postmodernisme et moralite. Soulignant les implications pratiques de revendication de la mort du sujet, l'A. montre que l'idee des limites de l'action n'engendre pas le rejet de la morale, mais delimite les elements d'une psychologie morale altruiste qui ouvre la voie a la sensibilite morale postmoderne.
