Details

The Department of Philosophy and the Faculty of Arts and Sciences at the American University of Beirut will be holding the first international conference on Moral Psychology in Lebanon and quite possibly in the Arab Middle East. We hope to bring together scholars from both psychology and philosophy to address very timely questions such as: What accounts for our moral judgments? What is the basis of disagreements in morality? What can disorders such as psychopathy and sociopathology tell us about morality? What moral lessons can we draw from contemporary social, cognitive, and evolutionary psychology as well as neuroscience? Are there any skills associated with being a moral person? What can psychology tell us about the best forms of punishment?
