My name is Sebastian Östlund and I am an Associate Professor in Philosophy. In short, I read, write, study, and teach. I have experience teaching undergraduates and graduate students in both theoretical and practical philosophy. Currently, the teaching mainly relates to ethics (normative and applied), including ethics of technology and AI, environmental and animal ethics, the philosophy of science, history of philosophy, and political philosophy. For more information, follow this link.
Broadly speaking, my current research interests revolve around questions in the intersections of axiology, political philosophy as well as philosophy of technology and science. I especially focus on capability approach analyses in my work. More particular recent research topics involve conversion factors, homelessness, and social justice. A selection of my presentations can be found here.
