AI, doping and ethics: On why increasing the effectiveness of detecting doping fraud in sport may be morally wrong
In this article, our aim is to show why increasing the effectiveness of detecting doping fraud in sport by the use of artificial intelligence (AI) may be morally wrong. The first argument in favour of this conclusion is that using AI to make a non-ideal antidoping policy even more effective can be morally wrong. Whether the increased effectiveness is morally wrong depends on whether you believe that the current antidoping system administrated by …
The Oxford Handbook of the Philosophy of Punishment
The Oxford Handbook of the Philosophy of Punishment is the most comprehensive collective work that has yet been published on the philosophical aspects of punishment. It is divided into nine sections covering all the main philosophical challenges arising from the questions of why, when, and how offenders should be punished for their misdeeds. An initial section provides insight into and discussions of all the leading theories of the justification …
Criminal Justice and Artificial Intelligence: How Should we Assess the Performance of Sentencing Algorithms
Artificial intelligence is increasingly permeating many types of high-stake societal decision-making such as the work at the criminal courts. Various types of algorithmic tools have already been introduced into sentencing. This article concerns the use of algorithms designed to deliver sentence recommendations. More precisely, it is considered how one should determine whether one type of sentencing algorithm (e.g., a model based on machine learni…

Minding Rights: Mapping Ethical and Legal Foundations of ‘Neurorights’
The rise of neurotechnologies, especially in combination with artificial intelligence (AI)-based methods for brain data analytics, has given rise to concerns around the protection of mental privacy, mental integrity and cognitive liberty – often framed as “neurorights” in ethical, legal, and policy discussions. Several states are now looking at including neurorights into their constitutional legal frameworks, and international institutions and or…
Leveling (down) the playing field: Performance diminishments and fairness in sport
The 2018 eligibility regulation for female competitors with differences of sexual development (DSD) issued by World Athletics requires competitors with DSD with blood testosterone levels at or above 5 nmol/L and sufficient androgen sensitivity to be excluded from competition in certain events unless they reduce the level of testosterone in their blood. This paper formalises and then critically assesses the fairness-based argument offered in suppo…
Retributivism and the proportionality dilemma
‘Retributivism’ covers a wide range of theories which, even though they differ in various ways, all give some room for proportionality considerations with regard to the question of how severely offenders should be punished. This article addresses the question—well‐known from traditional ethical theory—as to whether proportionality constraints should be given an absolutist or a non‐absolutist interpretation. It is argued that both absolutist and s…

Predictive Sentencing: Normative and Empirical Perspectives
"Predictive Sentencing addresses the role of risk assessment in contemporary sentencing practices. Predictive sentencing has become so deeply ingrained in Western criminal justice decision-making that despite early ethical discussions about selective incapacitation, it currently attracts little critique. Nor has it been subjected to a thorough normative and empirical scrutiny. This is problematic since much current policy and practice concerning …
Sentencing for Multiple Crimes
Most people assume that criminal offenders have only been convicted of a single crime. However, in reality almost half of offenders stand to be sentenced for more than one crime. The high proportion of multiple-crime offenders poses a number of practical and theoretical challenges for the criminal justice system. For instance, how should courts punish multiple offenders relative to individuals who have been sentenced for a single crime? Should a …
Exploring an Institutionalist and Post-Desert Theoretical Approach to Multiple-Offense Sentencing
This chapter begins with a discussion of Neil MacCormick’s institutionalist approach to legal phenomena, and argues that this theoretical framework has value as a way to study multiple offense sentencing (MOS). The most thorough completed empirical research into MOS, by Austin Lovegrove in Victoria, Australia, is then considered, alongside the leading Victorian case of Azzopardi v. R . Congruently with the expectations of institutionalism, this a…

Retributivism and Resources
A traditional overall distinction between the various versions of retributive theories of punishment is that between positive and negative retributivism. This article addresses the question of what positive retributivism – and thus the obligation to punish perpetrators – implies for a society in which the state has many other types of obligation (e.g. obligations to provide its citizens with some degree of health care, education, protection, etc.…
Restitutionism: A Self-Defeating Theory of Criminal Justice
Modem discussion of the ethics of punishment has given rise to a variety of different answers to the traditional questions as to why and how crim inals should be punished for their misdeeds. Despite the fact that anyone engaged in a consideration of these questions will thus face a poly faceted theoretical field, it is nevertheless obvious, I believe, that the more basic ingredients in the discussions have to a large extent consisted of the tradi…

"Most people (including moral philosophers), when faced with the fact that some of their cherished moral views lead up to the Repugnant Conclusion, feel that they have to revise their moral outlook. However, it is a moot question as to how this should be done. It is not an easy thing to say how one should avoid the Repugnant Conclusion, without having to face even more serious implications from one's basic moral outlook. Several such attempts are…

Is the Repugnant Conclusion Repugnant?
Dans le cadre du debat sur la conclusion repugnante etudiee par D. Parfit dans son ouvrage intitule «Reasons and persons» (1984), l'A. souleve la question de savoir si celle-ci est veritablement repugnante. Examinant la premisse qui consiste a affirmer qu'une vie qui merite a peine d'etre vecue n'est pas une mauvaise vie, l'A. montre que la conclusion repugnante n'est pas une conclusion inacceptable et qu'elle releve de la critique de l'utilitari…
