The Social Studies of Ethics, Morality, and Values Network draws together scholars across disciplines whose work is concerned with ethics, morality, and values. In addition to traditional strongholds in philosophy, interest in ethics and morality (broadly construed) is growing across the social sciences. This includes growing literatures focusing specifically on ethics and morality, and also a wider body of research that pertains to these topics without being the primary focus of study (e.g. studies of personal lives, religion, AI, etc.).
This open, international, interdisciplinary network provides a means to share publications, ideas, findings, and resources, as well as a means to get to know each other's work. The network shares news and publications via a mailing list, and organizes regular meetings.
The network is jointly organized by the Department of Sociology at the University of York and the School of Social Sciences at the University of Cardiff.
