Out now: Third episode of ‘corona/ethics’ podcast!

What will the future look like after Corona? How can we integrate public values into anticipatory scenarios? Can and should we nudge people to stick to Corona measures or get vaccinated? 



This episode called “Corona and the future” features Yashar Saghai and is hosted by Bas de Boer (both University of Twente). They talk about an interesting research project where people are asked to imagine the future after Corona. Moral dilemmas connected to Corona, values and public deliberation about future crises, and governmental emergency preparedness are considered. Philosophy’s role in times of crisis is also addressed.

The podcast series is an initiative of 4TU.Ethics in conjunction with DDfV. In this series, we ask philosophers from 4TU to consider how the pandemic challenges practices and institutions and how ethical reflection can provide a better understanding of these challenges and the response to them.
