King, Christian Ethics, and the Promise of Positive Fundamental Rights
On February 6, 1968, leaders of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference drafted a letter addressed to the president, Congress, and the U.S. Supreme Court. The letter argued that the U.S. constitution facilitated economic and social second-class citizenship because the constitution did not protect economic and social rights but instead protected only civil and political rights. The letter’s authors demanded that the nation repent for its cont…
When Artists Go to Work
Collaboration between the arts and health sectors is gaining momentum. Artists are contributing significantly to public health efforts such as vaccine confidence campaigns. Artists and the arts are well positioned to contribute to the social conditions needed to build trust in the health sector. Health professionals, organizations, and institutions should recognize not only the power that can be derived from the insights, artefacts, and expertise…

The Kantian Promise and Peril of Moral Bioenhancement
Moral bioenhancement (MBE) aims to fix our moral agency itself in order to prevent us from engaging in negligent or harmful behavior. Although such (self)‐paternalistic practice might very well produce good outcomes, it can be argued – inspired by Kant – that it is intrinsically disrespectful towards our future agency. Hence, we are faced with the following ethical dilemma: the failure to engage in MBE seems reckless and negligent, which can be c…

Speaking Volumes
This essay takes as its starting point the claim that addressing anti‐Black racism is essential to the work of bioethics in the United States. The essay examines whether and how racism has been addressed in the field's central reference work, the Encyclopedia of Bioethics , throughout its four editions—in 1978, 1995, 2004, and 2014. With consideration of each edition's stated purpose and editorial framing, we find that the subject of racism is ob…
Addressing Anti‐Black Racism in Bioethics
As a field concerned with ethical issues in health and health care, particularly how structures, policies, and practices unfairly advantage some and disadvantage others, bioethics has a moral obligation to address the long-standing challenges that racism has posed to the overall health and well-being of Black, Indigenous, and Latinx people and other people of color. Arguably, the premature death and disease disproportionately affecting Black Amer…
Thinking ethically about pandemics
This essay argues that any ethical approach to mitigating the negative effects of pandemics must give detailed and sustained attention to those who are on the margins of society. This means tackling widespread racism and concentrated poverty in our body politics. The challenges resulting from pandemics are not merely ones of public health but are simultaneously matters of social ethics. The aim of this essay is to highlight important values from …
A normative foundation for statism
Cosmopolitans have argued that coercive statism – the view that egalitarian distributive obligations only exist between co-citizens – is under-motivated. Conversely, republican theorists have argued that the state should remain a primary focus of global justice, relying only upon contingent features of states and the global order. This paper argues for an understanding of freedom as non-domination that grounds both coercive statism and the republ…

Japan, Smith has long been reminding Americans, is a different country than we have assumed. It is now in the process of reclaiming its unique identity. As it does so, relations with the United States are likely to become rocky

The London Police and the Holy War
In 1859-60 Londoners were treated to the unusual and alarming spectacle of disturbances in the East End Anglican church of St. George's-in-the-East. The cause of the disorder was Ritualism, the introduction of High-Church rituals into the Sunday services. At St. George's it was hardly a learned dispute among theologians, but a weekly brawl that pitted the Ritualist rector against a largely hostile and disruptive congregation trying to restore the…
