A Hermeneutical Framework for the Ethical Evaluation of Airport Passenger Screening Following John Dewey\u201d. In 2017, it\u00a0was awarded the Wetzstein Award for Philosophy.<\/p>\n<h2>Abstract<\/h2>\n<p>The dissertation is written in German and the abstract reads like this:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Die gesellschaftspolitischen Konflikte um die Versch\u00e4rfung von Fluggastkontrollen belegen, dass es bei Entscheidungen dar\u00fcber, wie und mit welchen Techniken derartige Kontrollprozesse zu organisieren sind, einen Bedarf an ethischer Expertise gibt. Getroffen werden m\u00fcssen solche Entscheidungen vor einem komplexen Horizont von Wertvorstellungen, der sich nicht auf den Gegensatz \u201aentweder Sicherheit oder Freiheit\u2018 reduzieren l\u00e4sst. Entsprechend muss eine informierte Entscheidungsfindung ber\u00fccksichtigen, welche impliziten Wertvorstellungen uns bei der Forderung nach mehr Sicherheit durch Fluggastkontrollen leiten und welche Wertungskonflikte verschiedene Kontrolltechniken jeweils konkret implizieren.<br \/>\n\u00dcber eine hermeneutische Lesart von John Deweys Moralpragmatismus werden in dieser Arbeit jene Wertvorstellungen rekonstruiert, die uns bei der Forderung nach Sicherheit leiten, wie auch jene, die dabei auf dem Spiel stehen. Auf dieser Basis pr\u00e4sentiert die Arbeit eine Methode zur operationalisierten Technikbewertung, \u00fcber die verschiedene Kontrollprozesse verglichen sowie Handlungsempfehlungen generiert werden k\u00f6nnen.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Roughly, this translates as the following:<\/p>\n<p>The socio-political conflicts around tightening passenger security screening measures at airports show that there is a need for ethical expertise. Decisions on how to organize the screening process and on which screening technologies to use must be taken in regard to a complex horizon of values that cannot be reduced to the alternative &#8216;either security or freedom&#8217;. Hence, informed decision making must take into account not only which valuations implicitly guide us when we ask for improved security, but also what values specifically come into conflict when organizing the security checks in a certain way.<\/p>\n<p>Through a hermeneutical reading of John Deweys moral pragmatism, this book reconstructs the relevant valuations that guide us in demanding better security and those that are at stake. Building on this, the book presents an operationalized framework for ethical evaluation. It allows to compare the impact of different ways of screening passengers in regard to the relevant valuations, as well as to generate guidelines so as to address unintended negative consequences.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Link to the <a href=\"https:\/\/d-nb.info\/1153141965\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DNB listing of the book<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/d-nb.info\/1153141965\/04\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Table of contents<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ein Framework zur hermeneutisch-ethischen Bewertung von Fluggastkontrollen im Anschluss and John Dewey.
