About
Our working group's goal is to bring together philosophers whose work focuses on the complex relations between values and mind for fruitful interaction and discussion. We are open to traditional as well as empirical approaches to the subject.

Collaborative Goals
We aim to advance scholarly discussion of several topics in moral psychology. To this end, we will host a workshop to discuss four papers and a lecture for students, faculty, and members of the public. Last year, we discussed topics such as victim blaming, the nature of loyalty in friendship, emotional lability, and the relationship between pleasure and virtue, and Lawrence Blum of the University of Massachusetts, Boston gave a lecture entitled, "Historical Adventures in the Egoism/Altruism Framework."
