Formal Ethics 2015

The formal analysis of ethical concepts and theories (via the application
of tools from logic, rational choice theory, natural language semantics,
AI) is a rapidly growing field of research. It has shed new light on a
variety of concepts that are central to ethical theory, such as freedom,
responsibility, values, norms, and conventions. The series Formal Ethics
conferences aims at providing an international platform for the discussion
and promotion of formal approaches to ethics and to push the frontiers of
the research being conduced in this field.

For information about previous Formal Ethics conferences, please take a
look at http://2014.formalethics.net. The program, tutorial, and working
session links there will provide some indication of the breadth of possible
topics and formal approaches.
