I’m Amrei Bahr, a philosopher and since 2017 a research assistant at the Institute for Philosophy at Heinrich Heine University D\u00fcsseldorf. Before that, I did my doctorate in M\u00fcnster and was a fellow of the research group Ethics of Copying at the Center for Interdisciplinary Research at Bielefeld University. In my doctoral thesis, I examined how moral rights of authors can be justified to their intellectual creations and which copying activities can violate such rights. I am currently working on an ethics of recycling, which focuses on the following questions, among others: Is recycling really the best way of disposing of waste from an ethical point of view? What can a fair approach to waste look like that adequately takes into account the interests of current and future generations all over the world? My research on the ethics of scientific publishing is also about questions of justice: How should the scientific publication system be changed in order to enable all researchers to participate fairly – even those who have high costs for access to publications or for the publication itself (e.g. in Form of open access fees or printing subsidies)?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
