A talk from EMF 2014 by Ashton Clarke

On Saturday August 30, 2014 at in Stage C

Featuring some of the more well-known science-fiction shows such as Firefly, Stargate and Star Wars, I will explore some of the dilemmas featured, such as whether it is right to kill a man to secure a nation's peace, is it right to let many die to save the life of one and what ethical theories are used in these pieces, such as Utilitarianism or Kantian ethics.
