In the last 20 years of evolutionary theory has provided researchers with a new theoretical perspective upon social norms.

 

Centre for research in Applied Ethics of the Faculty of Philosophy in Bucharest in collaboration with MINA, with the Center for the study of Rationalitatii and beliefs and the Research Center for Logic and philosophy and history of science, a study of aim out to shape as an emerging evolutionary rules in complex interactions. Theoretical strategy that you propose the following three fundamental directions of research.

 

First of all, we will contribute to the critical analysis of the conceptual nature and presupozitiilor of the underlying logic model reconstruction of the emergentei rules, as proposed in the recent literature.

 

Secondly the project follows the classification and discussion of contemporary social sciences development that utilizes this type of modeling, our assumption is that we are at a rare moment of convergence in which political philosophies, eticienii and researchers from the social sciences have at their disposal the same set of theoretical tools and generate results.

 

The third direction aims to explore the philosophical implications of the possibility of obtaining a rigorous modeling of emergentei interactions in the context of dynamic rules such as those that take place in virtual environments.
