Air pollution, another hot topic, when brought up, elicits more smirks than signs of empathy. “China is polluting the world!” is a phrase spoken with no sympathy, no understanding of how the very real consequences this problem creates in the very country that causes it.

Others, such as pronoun choice, are morally charged. My dissertation offers an analysis of a category of morally charged social norms that I call political etiquette. I propose that we understand political etiquette as a system of conventions whereby we assure members of vulnerable groups that they can expect treatment in accordance with their rightful status. My account partially vindicates political etiquette’s claim to moral force, but also sheds light on its limitations. I argue that some of these limitations can be ameliorated through widespread acceptance of my interpretation of political etiquette.

  • The Petrie Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics
    The Petrie Flom Center for Health Law Policy, Biotechnology, and Bioethics Annual Report, Fiscal Year 2015 Executive Summary This year marks the close of the Petrie-Flom Center’s first decade of existence, and we are thrilled with what we have been able to accomplish in that time. The Center began with a focus on developing new scholars and scholarship in the fields of health law policy, biotechnology, and bioethics through fellowship programs for students and post-docs, as well as a handful of events and conferences. Since then, our goals have expanded dramatically to include not only these important academic pursuits, but also policy impact through sponsored research collaborations bridging legal, medical, and other disciplines. Most notably, we are no longer only a research program comprised solely of individuals working on their individual projects, but rather a true Center made up of collaborators working on Center-based research with high impact and visibility. In terms of sponsored research, we have made substantial progress this year on our work leading the Law and Ethics Initiative of the Football Players Health Study at Harvard. In addition to providing guidance regarding legal and ethical issues that arise in other aspects of the study, we are drafting several reports and recommendations aimed at improving player health and well-being using the tools of law and ethics to complement clinical interventions. We have also continued our work with Harvard Catalyst’s Regulatory Foundations, Ethics, and Law Program, hosting an international conference to develop a research agenda around improving recruitment to clinical trials, developing guidance for the use of social media in recruitment efforts, and conducting empirical research regarding perceptions of offers of payment to research participants.

  • Weathering Changechange
    weatheringweathering changechange ANAN ART ART ANTHOLOGY ANTHOLOGY IN RESPONSE IN RESPONSE TO TO CLIMATE CLIMATE CHANGE CHANGE 1 PREFACE Perhaps the greatest difficulty for people disturbed by the changing environment is unearthing a kind of answer to the question What am I supposed to do now? So many people have started to alter their lifestyles in some way or another in order to lessen our demands on the world, in order to use her resources more mindfully (perhaps they take public transit when they once drove; maybe they eat less meat than they use to; maybe they donate money or volunteer, etc.); nevertheless it is wretchedly hard, in spite of the vast good will and wonderful efforts of thousands on thousands, not to feel like the cause has already been lost… The art in this small volume evinces humanity’s commitment and ingenuity in searching for such an answer to What am I supposed to do now? As I helped to assemble this anthology, I had the happiness of being reminded of how many extraordinary people there are in this community – in particular Colin Durrant and Katie Hammer of Harvard’s Office for Sustainability – who are committed, in the profoundest sense of the word, to doing everything they can to meet the staggering issue of climate change. Inundating these pages is the gamut of reactions from this moment in time: nostalgia, despair, rage, analysis, stoicism, wonder, humility – the list goes on. My hope is that in coming together and speaking through such a medium, students, staff, and faculty may begin to change the climate of how we think about, discuss, and work with climate change.

  • USGSO Committee's Final Report
    Final Report of the Committee on Unrecognized Single-Gender Social Organizations (USGSOs) September 29, 2017 1. Introduction We begin our final report by asserting what our committee has heard repeatedly throughout our deliberations and from multiple sources: The College must take action to address the detrimental impact of the unrecognized single-gender social organizations (USGSOs).1 In recognizing this consensus, we do not wish to elide significant differences of opinion about which approach the College should take, but rather to underline that, in spite of disagreeing on approach, the consistent message has been that it is imperative for the College to take action. Since the Preliminary Report of the Committee on Unrecognized Single-Gender Social Organizations (USGSOs) was issued in July 2017, the committee has sought feedback through multiple channels. We established a dedicated e-mail account and wiki page where faculty could engage with the committee and each other about the Preliminary Report. E-mails and letters also came from students and alumni. We are grateful to all who took the time to share their thoughts.2 The committee held drop-in sessions for faculty consultation during the week of September 11, 2017. The drop-in sessions generated substantive conversations, with almost all faculty members staying for at least 45 minutes and some for more than an hour to engage in frank and open discussion with members of the committee. Representatives of the committee also visited the Faculty Council, Administrative Board, Education Policy Committee, a meeting of the Faculty Deans of the undergraduate House system, and select members of the Committee on Student Life and the Presidential Task Force on Inclusion and Belonging.3 Any faculty members who were not able to attend these sessions were encouraged to share feedback with the committee through other means.
