The Society for Ethics

What Is the Society for Ethics?

Established in 1995, The Society for Ethics (SE) serves the purpose of promoting philosophical research in ethics, broadly construed, including areas such as (but not limited to) ethical theory, moral, social and political philosophy, as well as areas of applied ethics such as (but not limited to) legal, business and medical ethics. Although the SE is primarily a philosophical society, others are also encouraged to become members. Membership Form

  • The Society for Ethics will hold meetings in conjunction with the American Philosophical Association's divisional meetings. The format of such meetings will include invited Keynote Speakers all of which will be published in revised form in The Journal of Ethics: An International Philosophical Review.

  • The Society for Ethics is an academic society which seeks to promote philosophical research in ethics without promoting a particular ideological creed or agenda, except that of research excellence in ethics. The SE seeks to promote excellence in research and scholarship in ethics in an inclusive manner, without excluding certain ethical topics or points of view. The SE seeks to build cooperative links with other ethics societies and philosophical associations, such as:

  • The American Philosophical Association

  • Association for Practical and Professional Ethics

  • The British Society for Ethical Theory
