Extortionary ("harassment") bribery can persist even when widely condemned, consistent with a coordination problem sustained by beliefs about what others do and what others consider acceptable. We study whether a minimal institutional featurethe presence of a third-party monitor empowered to punish-shifts (i) normative expectations about extortion and compliance and (ii) empirical expectations about their prevalence. ...

This article presents an overview of experimental studies comparing ordinary moral judgments about wars with normative models (international humanitarian law and just war theory).

Punishment plays a crucial role in driving norm change by incentivizing compliance with evolving shared normative expectations. Punitive measures typically encompass two components: a communicative effect, which delineates inappropriate conduct, and an institutionalized procedure that facilitates sanction enforcement. This study specifically investigates the latter dimension, examining how the mere existence of a punishment institution influences ...

This article investigates and systematizes methods for measuring folk beliefs about the objectivity of morality. The relevance of the topic stems from the growing interest in understanding how ordinary people, without philosophical training, perceive the nature of moral norms and their objectivity. Based on an analysis of existing approaches to measuring folk metaethical claims, the ...

This article seeks to introduce Alasdair MacIntyre’s conception of virtue ethics into the sociology of morality as a redeveloping field of enquiry, focusing on the ways it could advance the sociological understanding of moral life. I argue that the virtue perspective, particularly in MacIntyre’s version, allows for conceptualizing morality as a personally and socially continuous ...

Experimental philosophers have been long addressing the problem of folk metaethics, that is, laypeople's ideas about the nature of moral judgments, focusing especially on the question of whether such judgments are believed to represent some objective truth. While the results of their experiments, mostly conducted on small Western samples, suggest that certain personal and social ...

http://This article attempts to clarify the essence of Durkheim’s rationalism, especially in his interpretation of morality. The author distinguishes between two aspects, or meanings, of Durkheim’s rationalism: 1) epistemological one and 2) ontological one. In the first, epistemological sense, Durkheim was a convinced rationalist, defending rationalistic means of cognition of social phenomena. In the second, ...

Показано, что несмотря на наличие некоторой традиции осмысления, а также более современных попыток интеграции этих проблем в предметную область социологии морали, ...

Non-communicable diseases are influenced by multiple genetic, physiological, environmental, and behavioral factors, with dietary sugar consumption representing one of the key modifiable risk determinants. Interventions aimed at reducing sugar intake often rely on persuasive health messaging by experts, yet it remains unclear whether the expertise of the narrator of the message is an indispensable component ...

We are the first to examine the influence of empirical information on both actual behavior and normative expectations in the context of extortion. To this end, we conduct a laboratory experiment that involves a multi-round coordination game, in which participants receive information about the behavior of "officials" and "citizens" playing a harassment bribery game in ...

Every social situation that people encounter in their daily lives comes with a set of unwritten rules about
what behavior is considered appropriate or inappropriate. These everyday norms can vary across
societies: some societies may have more permissive norms in general or for certain behaviors, or for
certain behaviors in specific situations. In a preregistered survey of 25,422 ...

The article examines two main approaches to integrating models, methods, and findings from cognitive science into sociological theory and methodology. It argues for comparative advantages of the first interdisciplinary approach – termed ‘cognitive social science (and neuroscience)’ – while critically assessing the limitations of the second, conventionally labeled ‘cognitive sociology’. Drawing on specific examples, the ...

The article examines AI from the perspective of moral agency and moral patiency. In the
forepart, an overview of the main theoretical arguments as well as some experimental data regarding the
(im)possibility of grounding the moral status of intelligent machines is provided. Evidence shows that
perceived anthropomorphism and animism, this being culturally dependent, significantly influence the
moral recognition of ...

Values and morality are the key concepts sociologists have been using to emphasize the normative dimension of social behavior since the very dawn of our discipline. Yet, while one can find two modern traditions of research concentrated around the concepts of values and morality in sociology, the strict relations between them are rarely explicitly addressed. ...

The emergence of COVID-19 dramatically changed social behavior across societies and contexts. Here we study whether social norms also changed. Specifically, we study this question for cultural tightness (the degree to which societies generally have strong norms), specific social norms (e.g. stealing, hand washing), and norms about enforcement, using survey data from 30,431 respondents in 43 ...

The paper is about a dynamical extension of the well-known Bernheim-Cartwright-Patel model of conformism. In this model the signaling equilibrium is a result of the optimal choice of an individual when such individual maximizes her utility by choosing a donation in the amount. In doing this the individual takes into account her intrinsic utility based ...
