A Duty not to Remain Silent: Hypocrisy and the Lack of Standing not to Blame
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-07-20)A notable feature of our practice of blaming is that blamees can dismiss blame for their own blameworthy actions when the blamer is censuring them hypocritically and, as it is often put, lacks standing to blame them as a result. This feature has received a good deal of philosophical attention in recent years. By contrast, no attention has been given the possibility that, likewise, refraining from ... -
Elisabeth av Böhmen og sinn-kropp-problemet
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2018-09-07)<i>Norwegian abstract</i>: I artikkelen argumenterer jeg for at Elisabeth av Böhmen, gjennom hennes kritikk av den kartesianske dualismen mellom sjel og legeme, motiverer Descartes til å videreutvikle og presisere sin teori om samvirket mellom de to substansene, en prosess som kulminerer i den velkjente teori om konglekjertelen (glandula pinealis). I Meditasjoner fra 1641, som utgjør utgangspunktet ... -
The Emotional Risk Posed by AI (Artificial Intelligence in the Workplace)
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-09-12)The existential risk posed by ubiquitous artificial intelligence (AI) is a subject of frequent discussion with descriptions of the prospect of misuse, the fear of mass destruction, and the singularity. In this paper I address an underexplored category of existential risk posed by AI, namely emotional risk. Values are a main source of emotions. By challenging some of our most essential values, AI ... -
Entrapment
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023)The word ‘entrapment’ has three common usages in legal discourse. First, it is used in connection with acts of entrapment: it applies, at least, to a class of acts in which a party, whom we call the ‘agent’, intentionally brings it about that another party, whom we call the ‘target’, performs a distinct act that is of a criminal type. Secondly, it is used to refer to a method of proactive law ... -
Entrapment, Temptation, and Virtue Testing
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2022-01-06)We address the ethics of scenarios in which one party (the ‘agent’) entraps, intentionally tempts, or intentionally tests the virtue of another (the ‘target’). We classify, in a new manner, three distinct types of acts that are of concern, namely acts of entrapment, of (mere) intentional temptation and of (mere) virtue testing. Our classification is, for each kind of scenario, of itself neutral ... -
Envy, self-esteem, and distributive justice
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-21)Most agree that envy, or at least the malicious kind(s), should not have any role in the moral justification of distributive arrangements. This paper defends a contrary position. It argues that at the very least John Rawls, Axel Honneth and others that care about the social bases of self-esteem have good reasons to care about the levels of envy that different distributive principles reliably ... -
Epistemic injustice
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-04-12)Epistemic injustice groups together different phenomena that inhibit us from accessing or producing knowledge due to prejudices about certain groups. Epistemic injustice describes situations in which speakers’ knowledge is falsely discredited due to their group membership. It can also describe the lack of concepts for describing experiences, and the connected knowledge, of marginalised groups as ... -
Er kjærlighet en forutsetning for rettferdighet?
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-12)Martha Nussbaum mener at forsvarere av samtidige liberale rettferdighetsteorier ikke har tatt innover seg det hun kaller anstendige samfunns moralpsykologi. Alle samfunn trenger emosjonell støtte, dette gjelder også liberale rettferdige samfunn. Liberale og rettferdige institusjoner som ivaretar menneskets verdighet, frihet, toleranse og respekt forutsetter at borgerne føler kjærlighet til disse ... -
The Ethical Consequences of Criminalising Solidarity in the EU
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-12-19)The aftermath of the European refugee crisis can be said to have sparked a crisis of solidarity. Despite abundant demonstrations of solidarity with refugees and asylum seekers, what many saw as an exercise of their duty to help was made illegal. The critical term that emerged to refer to this conjuncture was “criminalization of solidarity”. In order to include this term in the academic debate, this ... -

Filosofihistorisk Likestilling
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2022-09-19)Alle som har beskjeftiget seg med det lange 1800-tallets filosofi- og kulturhistorie, vet at dette århundret mer enn noe annet domineres av tyskspråklig litteratur. Det er unektelig Schwung over navn som Kant, Fichte, Schlegel-brødrene, Schelling, Goethe, Schiller, Herder, Schleiermacher, Hegel, Marx, Engels, Schopenhauer, Dilthey, Nietzsche, Rilke og Freud. Normalt blir disse mannlige tenkerne, i ... -
Fitch's paradox and truthmaking: Why Jago's argument remains ineffective
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-05-02)Recently, there have been several attempts to use the kind of reasoning found in Fitch’s knowability paradox to argue for rather sweeping metaphysical claims: Jago (2020) uses such reasoning to argue that every truth has a truthmaker, and Loss (2021) does so to argue that every fact is grounded. This strategy has been criticized by Trueman (2021), who points out that the same kind of reasoning could ... -
THE “FOREIGN” VIRUS? - Justifying Norway’s Border Closure
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-20)In response to the COVID pandemic, the Norwegian government implemented the strictest border controls in modern Norwegian history, barring entry to most foreign nationals. The Prime Minister, Erna Solberg, justified these policies with reference to the rise of new COVID variants and the need to limit visitors to Norway as much as possible. As this approach has severe adverse effects on many people, ... -
Forever Foreigners: The Temporality of Immigrant Indebtedness
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-04-27)In this article, I offer a critical phenomenological investigation of immigrant indebtedness, with special focus on its temporality. I understand immigrant indebtedness as a relation of debt where what is owed is gratitude, and which takes on a special meaning when the debtor in question is racially construed as immigrant. Understood as such, immigrant indebtedness has the power to function as a ... -

Fra hverdagspraksis til strukturell urettferdighet
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-03-29)Metoobevegelsen har ført til et økt fokus på kulturelle og strukturelle forhold som bidrar til å opprettholde og usynliggjøre seksuell trakassering og diskriminering i arbeidslivet og andre sektorer i samfunnslivet. Artikkelen er en diskusjon av ulike former for urettferdighet som bidrar til å skape en slik kultur, mer presist, <i>epistemisk urettferdighet</i> og <i>implisitt bias</i>. Disse formene ... -
Gender balance
(Chapter; Bokkapittel, 2023-04-12)Gender balance is defined as equal participation of women and men. Aiming for gender balance can be one pathway towards more equal, diverse, and inclusive societies. Gender balance can be achieved both vertically and horizontally within an organisation. Vertical gender balance is defined as an equal proportion of women and men in ranked positions of power. Horizontal gender balance is defined as an ... -

Group rights, collective goods, and the problem of cross-border minority protection
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-02-02)This article argues that there are both practical and conceptual reasons for relaxing the prevailing state-centric frameworks for minority protection in the global arena. The article discusses two example cases: the indigenous Sami and the Roma travellers. It draws on analyses of the kinds of rights protected by the key international minority rights documents, and the kinds of goods these rights ...
