Framing Computational Fairness and Non-Discrimination
This article outlines a new framework of computational fairness for the analysis of data-driven statistical discrimination. It begins by identifying the limitations of the still dominant paradigm of fairness through unawareness . Building on this critique, the article proposes an approach that distinguishes concerns of procedural fairness from questions of distributive justice when evaluating potentially discriminatory procedures. In contrast to …
Ideal Justice and Rational Dissent. A Critique of Amartya Sen’s The Idea of Justice
In The Idea of Justice Amartya Sen criticises ‘transcendental institutionalism’ for entertaining notions of ‘ideal justice’ that, are neither necessary nor sufficient for the advancement of justice in the real world. Sen argues in favor of a ‘realization- focused’ and ‘comparative’ understanding of justice that he associates with the names of Adam Smith, Marx, and J. S. Mill. Conceptions of ideal justice. Sen believes, are useless since in practi…
Justice, legitimacy, and constitutional rights
There is a tension between the idea of popular sovereignty and our understanding that basic constitutional rights and liberties have a normative authority which is independent from the results of democratic decision‐making procedures. On the one hand there is the claim that the content of political justice, at least as far as the basic liberties are concerned, is to be fixed solely by substantive moral and political argument, while on the other t…

Human Rights as Moral Claim Rights
Das Recht der Völker
Welche Bedingungen lassen Völker gerecht und friedlich zusammenleben? Unter welchen Umständen sind Kriege gerechtfertigt? Welche Leitlinien müssen gegeben sein für Organisationen, die eine gerechte Gesellschaft von Völkern mit gleichen Rechten herzustellen vermögen? In acht Grundsätzen für eine gerechte internationale Ordnung entwickelt der amerikanische Philosoph John Rawls einen hypothetischen "Vertrag der Gesellschaft der Völker". Das jüngste …

Global Distributive Justice
The paper discusses the problem of global distributive justice. It proposes to distinguish between principles for the domestic and for the global or intersocietal distribution of wealth. It is argued that there may be a plurality of partly diverging domestic conceptions of distributive justice, not all of which need to be liberal egalitarian conceptions. It is maintained, however, that principles regulating the intersocietal distribution of wealt…
Erfahrung und Selbstbewußtsein. Zur Kategoriendeduktion bei Kant
Die Studie hat Kants Transzendentale Deduktion der Kategorien zum Gegenstand. Sie enthält eine Erörterung von deren Voraussetzungen und eine Analyse des ausgeführten Arguments in der zweiten Auflage der Kritik der reinen Vernunft. Im Mittelpunkt steht die Frage nach der kategorialen Einheit menschlicher Erfahrung. Untersucht wird insbesondere die Annahme Kants, dass die durch Kategorien geregelte Einheit aller Wahrnehmungen in einer Erfahrung ein…
