For many years, philosophers have argued about the Trolley Problem – but they've also argued about whether the problem ought to interest us. According to some, the artificiality of the situations means that they involve no complicating factors – and so we ought to take our intuitions about them especially seriously.

A rectangular current circuit in which one conductor is moving along its own axis is Lorentz equivalent to a two-trolley loop sliding along a stationary wire. The body and surface densities of charge and current are deduced on the basis of a simplifying idealization.

AbstractPart I considered how to determine whether there is a moral difference between killing and letting die per se, but in the two chapters of Part II, the consideration is when it is and when it is not permissible to kill some to save others. Ch. 6 first examines in some detail the arguments John Harris has made for a survival lottery (where we may

This chapter puts forward a novel healthcare application of the Trolley Problem by applying it to our most recent global health crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic. The following hypothesis is introduced, analyzed and ultimately rejected: that the Trolley Problem can be used to distinguish between the supposed ethical permissibility of lifting lockdowns and ...

We challenge the popular classification of the trolley problem as a series of thought experiments in possible worlds. The trolley world is, in fact, impossible. It is, rather, a fantasy world of role-playing language game within a graphic narrative. The trolley world has all the characteristics of a game that game designers seek to reproduce. Thus, the

It first examines Guido Pincione’s arguments for the conclusion that the permissibility of a bystander turning a runaway trolley from killing five people toward killing one

Discrimination in Algorithmic Trolley Problems
2022Abstract Any useful trolley problem must be set up with a range of features that are relevant to the outcomes. This paper will adopt a “task-relevance” standard for which features are irrelevant to decision-making in trolley scenarios, and thus discriminatory.
