Prof.em. Dr. Rafael Capurro
|
Professor Capurro's field of expertise is practical philosophy or ethics in conjuction with new technologies. His philosophical roots go back to phenomenology (Husserl, Heidegger) and hermeneutics (Gadamer) as well as to philosophy of technology, particularly ICT. He worked for many years in the field of information managament at Fachinformationszentrum Karlsruhe and taught information science and information ethics for more than twenty years at university level (Stuttgart Media University and University of Stuttgart). He has done ethical counseling for ten years (2000-2010) at the European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies (EGE) to the European Commission as well as in several European and international projects such as ETHICBOTS and ETICA. In 1999 he created the International Center for Information Ethics (ICIE) with the support of the Center for Art and Media (Karlsruhe), probably the first online communities in the field of information ethics at a time where social software was not available and online communities were not popular as they became some years later. He promoted the intercultural dialogue in information ethics particularly in Africa, the Far East and Latin America, creating research networks and regular conferences. In 2004 he created with the support of Dr. Felix Weil (Stuttgart) the International Review of Information Ethics (IRIE), a free peer-review journal. He co-edits two book series on information ethics, one at Fink Verlag Munich and the other one at Franz Steiner Verlag Stuttgart. He and his wife have created the Capurro Fiek Foundation dealing with ethical challenges of new technologies particularly in developing countries. Current Responsibilities
