Encoded Normativity
This article explores the methodological and normative challenges of fine-tuning Large Language Models (LLMs) for international law. It focuses on three central architectural choices: (1) the selection of relevant domain-specific data, which raises questions related to legal sources doctrine, representativity and inclusion; (2) the integration of human expertise for reinforcement learning, and the requirement to address interpretative diversity; …
Synergies in Innovation
This paper draws on the emerging field of innovation ethics (IE) to complement the more established field of responsible innovation (RI) by focusing on key ethical issues raised by technological innovations. One key limitation of influential frameworks of RI is that they tend to neglect some key ethical issues raised by innovation, as well as major normative dimensions of the notion of responsibility. We explain how IE could enrich RI by stressin…
Connecting the Dots
This contribution argues for the recognition of digital integrity as a human right, either as a right on its own or as an interpretative principle for related rights. The right to digital integrity represents a legal norm that crystallizes a certain vision of the individual, as well as the protections that he/she ought to be afforded in a world where digital technologies are omnipresent and pervasive. The main function which digital integrity wou…
How to Justify the Competence to Control Immigration
This paper is a contribution to the political and legal theory on immigration. It proposes a revised justification of a political community’s competence to control immigration which draws upon both Pevnick’s account of “associative ownership” and Blake’s account of the responsibility to guarantee fundamental rights. I outline an argument structured around the concept of “jurisdiction” as delimiting a political and legal area. The internal and ext…
The end of discretionary immigration policy ? A blueprint to prevent multidimensional domination
Immigration is often associated with a situation in which would-be migrants and their countries of origin are put at the mercy of others’ decisions. The main objective of this article is to theorize this ‘being at the mercy’ in light of a republican definition of what freedom is about: the absence of domination. Immigration policy represents instances of domination on a wide spectrum of individuals and political communities. This article focuses …
Protecting Japan from immigrants? An ethical challenge to security-based justification in immigration policy
This article contributes to the growing interest in both the ethics of immigration and Japanese immigration studies by analysing the ethical justification of Japan’s immigration policy. The main objective of this article is to specify and address security-based justifications as part of an investigation into the ethical dimension of Japan’s immigration policy. Security is systematically drawn upon as one of the most powerful rationales to justify…
