To become more broadly applicable, positions on AI ethics require perspectives from non-Western regions and cultures such as China and Japan. In this paper, we propose that the addition of the concept of harmony to the discussion on ethical AI would be highly beneficial due to its centrality in East Asian cultures and its applicability to the challenge of designing AI for social good. We first present a synopsis of different definitions of harmony in multiple contexts, such as music and (...) |

My purpose in this essay is to suggest, via case study, that if Anglo-American philosophy is to become more inclusive of non-western traditions, the discipline requires far greater efforts at self-scrutiny. I begin with the premise that Confucian ethical treatments of manners afford unique and distinctive arguments from which moral philosophy might profit, then seek to show why receptivity to these arguments will be low. I examine how ordinary good manners have largely fallen out of philosophical moral discourse in the (...) |

In this episode, the main features of the contemporary debate surrounding pedagogical tact will be presented. Subsequently, it will be asserted that pedagogical tact, as demonstrated by Davis, pertains to (...) |

My reflections direct a performativity-theoretical perspective on the pedagogical tact, which in its systematic breadth should consider both the application approach for practice and the connectivity to theory. Regarding these dimensions, terms such as ’context sensitivity“ and ”reflective competence“ oscillate around the nature of tact. I will focus on the specific expertise of teachers in early childhood education and why the embodiment of pedagogical tact is particularly important for teachers in this target grade. Furthermore, the question arises how student teachers (...) |

This paper examines the challenge of mediating theory and practice in pedagogy, specifically focusing on the critical importance of educational tact as a mediator between the two. It first defines the role of pedagogical tact, underlining its significance as a vital skill for professionals. It also explores the qualities of teachers who embrace diversity and foster intercultural understanding, which is essential and crucial in our increasingly globalized world. Moreover, it underscores the unique role of pedagogical tact in haptic research, a (...) |

In recent years, reflection on pedagogical tact has made a comeback in the international debate. Tact is a fundamental disposition of the educator, albeit one that is scarcely addressed in the training of teachers and educators. The question is whether it is possible to treat this pedagogical propensity as a teachable habit, and to what extent. Here we propose that tact can be understood as a teachable frame of mind of the educator by analysing tactlessness. In other words, in order (...) |
