OKUNO Mariko
Associate Professor
- Research Subject
Moral philosophy (particularly the work of Henry Sidgwick, R.M. Hare, Derek Parfit, among others), Contemporary utilitarianism, and Bioethics.
Central to my inquiry is the question of what we, as imperfect and often irrational beings, ought to aspire to be—both morally and practically—in a world where ideal theory meets the constraints of human nature.
