The Neurocorrective Offer and Manipulative Pressure
An important question regarding the use of neurointerventions in criminal justice systems relates to the ethics of offering neurointerventions in exchange for a sentence reduction or as a condition of parole – what has been termed the neurocorrective offer . In this paper, we suggest that neurocorrective offers may sometimes involve manipulative pressure. That is, in some cases these offers will involve a pressure to comply with the manipulators’…
AI, doping and ethics
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 …
Should Hostile Design Be Used To Prevent Begging, Loitering, and Rough Sleeping
In Chap. 3 of his excellent book, Thomas Søbirk Petersen argues that there are good reasons in favour of employing so-called hostile design to prevent begging, loitering, and rough sleeping, and that four of the most prominent objections to this suggestion fail to persuade. By hostile design, Petersen has in mind the use of techniques such as tilted benches, steam vents, and spikes on the ground, as well as alterations to the urban acoustic envir…
Leveling (down) the playing field
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…
A note on psychological continuity theories of identity and neurointerventions
An important concern sometimes voiced in the neuroethical literature is that swift and radical changes to the parts of a person’s mental life essential for sustaining his/her numerical identity can result in the person ceasing to exist—in other words, that these changes may disrupt psychological continuity. Taking neurointerventions used for rehabilitative purposes as a point of departure, this short paper argues that the same radical alterations…
Ought the State Use Non-Consensual Treatment to Restore Trial Competence
Neurointerventions and informed consent
It is widely believed that informed consent must be obtained from a patient for it to be morally permissible to administer to him/her a medical intervention. The same has been argued for the use of neurointerventions administered to criminal offenders. Arguments in favour of a consent requirement for neurointerventions can take two forms. First, according to absolutist views, neurointerventions should never be administered without an offender’s i…
