A Multidimensional Ethics Scale for Indian Managers' Moral Decision Making
2010
This paper analyses the role of traditional moral theories in managers’ moral decision making using the multidimensional ethics scale (MES) developed and refined by Reidenbach and Robin (1988, 1990). This study extends their work by examining the applicability of the scale to subjects from India, other than the country in which the scale was developed. The research question is: what kind of ethical dimensions do Indian managers reveal when they are making moral decisions. Factor analysis is done to investigate the role of five moral philosophies (justice, deontology, relativism, utilitarianism, and egoism) in their ethical decision-making. The results show that the scale holds for the diffe…
Conceptualizing ecosystem tipping points within a physiological framework
2017
Connecting the nonlinear and often counterintuitive physiological effects of multiple environmental drivers to the emergent impacts on ecosystems is a fundamental challenge. Unfortunately, the disconnect between the way “stressors” (e.g., warming) is considered in organismal (physiological) and ecological (community) contexts continues to hamper progress. Environmental drivers typically elicit biphasic physiological responses, where performance declines at levels above and below some optimum. It is also well understood that species exhibit highly variable response surfaces to these changes so that the optimum level of any environmental driver can vary among interacting species. Thus, specie…
Społeczne funkcje instytucji kultury - miejsce muzeum w społeczności lokalnej
2018
Celem artykułu jest analiza znaczenia muzeum dla społeczności lokalnej. Omawiam okoliczności, jakie wpłynęły na zmianę funkcjonowania muzeów (warunki społeczno-kulturowe, koncepcje teoretyczne, krytykę artystyczną). Przeobrażeniu stopniowo ulega misja muzeów - priorytetem nie jest jedynie kolekcja i jej ochrona, ale również, a może przede wszystkim, służba społeczeństwu i udział w zmianie społecznej. Zadania te znajdują odzwierciedlenie w zasadach nowej etyki muzeów, która w centrum działania tych placówek stawia ich odpowiedzialność społeczną. Muzea odpowiedzialne społecznie hołdują co najmniej czterem wspólnym wartościom, są to idealizm, intymność, głębia oraz wzajemne powiązania. Efekty …
Effects of responsible human resource management practices on female employees’ turnover intentions
2017
This study focuses on the effects of socially responsible human resource management (SR-HRM) practices on female employees’ turnover intentions and the moderating effect of supervisor gender on this relationship. With a sample of 212 female employees from eight different industries in Finland, the results indicate that SR-HRM practices promoting equal career opportunities and work–family integration play a significant role in reducing women's turnover intentions. The study adds to the academic discourse of corporate social responsibility by highlighting the impact of the organizational-level HRM determinants on the individual-level outcome. In addition, supervisor gender makes a difference …
Cuidado y responsabilidad: de Hans Jonas a Carol Gilligan
2019
El objetivo de este trabajo es situar la ética del cuidado en contexto de las éticas de la responsabilidad. Para ello analizamos la orientación hacia el cuidado en las éticas de la responsabilidad mostrando la transición de una responsabilidad limitada por el cálculo consecuencialista en la actividad política, a una responsabilidad integral exigida por la preservación de la naturaleza ante los desafíos de la ciencia y la técnica. Interpretamos la aportación de Carol Gilligan en términos de «provocación » a la ética contemporánea para que el cuidado no sea únicamente una categoría sentimental o afectiva sino una categoría con la que reconstruir reflexivamente la justicia social. Esta interpr…
Pelaaja on pelaajalle susi : kriittinen analyysi DayZ:n vallitsevasta pelitavasta
2015
Tässä kriittisessä analyysissä perehdytään selviytymiskauhupeli DayZ:n sosiaalisiin käytäntöihin, jotka suosivat negatiivista vapautta ja luovat odotuksia pelaajien käytöksestä. Näiden käytäntöjen yleinen omaksuminen on tehnyt ennaltaehkäisevästä väkivallasta vallitsevan pelitavan. Artikkeli kartoittaa peliteknisiä, sosiaalisia ja kulttuurisia osatekijöitä, jotka mahdollistavat tämän epäsosiaalisen toimintamallin. Tätä keskustelua peilataan myös pelietiikan teoriaan. peerReviewed

Umani e animali nell’antropologia socioculturale contemporanea
2022
In the chapter, I show the connection between the ways in which the nineteenth-twentieth century sociocultural anthropologists became interested in the study of human-animal relationships and the dominant conceptions about the relationship between humanity and animality in philosophical and scientific thought of these two centuries. Till the last part of the twentieth century non-human animals were considered by anthropologists mainly as material and/or symbolic resources for the reproduction of humans and their social orders. This view paralleled the dominant vision in Western modern philosophical and scientific thought in which non-human animals were assimilated to mindless machines belon…
The Future of Technology in Positive Psychology: Methodological Advances in the Science of Well-Being
2018
Advances in biotechnology and information technology are poised to transform well-being research. This article reviews the technologies that we predict will have the most impact on both measurement and intervention in the field of positive psychology over the next decade. These technologies include: psychopharmacology, non-invasive brain stimulation, virtual reality environments, and big-data methods for large-scale multivariate analysis. Some particularly relevant potential costs and benefits to individual and collective well-being are considered for each technology as well as ethical considerations. As these technologies may substantially enhance the capacity of psychologists to intervene…
