I am a professor of ethics at the École des sciences de la Gestion of the Université du Québec à Montréal. My current research and teaching are in the broad areas of business ethics, ethics & economics, and political philosophy. I am interested in our ethical obligations in adversarial institutions, such as the market; on the demands of justice for the ownership and the proper governance of the firm; and on questions of socio-economic inequality. My other main area of research deals with new ethical issues associated with the rise of artificial intelligence and the increased usage of algorithms in society.
See below for my other affiliations, publications, event organization and work in progress. The lists of my conferences and other public interventions are on a different page. And don't forget to check my favorite pic of the month, which is probably the most interesting page on this website.
