Presentation

Je suis intéressée par les dynamiques de l’agir humain et leur conceptualisation. Mes recherches s’interroges sur le concept de libre arbitre et son utilisation dans le domaine moral, en particulier en relation avec la responsabilité morale et le mérite. J’analyse la structuration d’une conception de justice rétributive et vindicative qui en résulte. Je suis intéressée par l’évolution historique de ces concepts.

Writings

Free Will Between Nature and Ethics: a Concept to Overcome?

M.S. FINAL THESIS Aug. 2019 - Jul. 2020
• Supervisor: Prof. Gianfranco Mormino, Co-supervisor: Prof. Stefano Di Bella.
• I have inquired the possibility of existence of free will, through an examination of the mind-body debate and an analysis of the phenomenology of free action. Having come to exclude such possibility, I have researched the ethical consequences of this theoretical assessment, in particular regarding the concepts of justice, moral responsibility, desert and punishment.
