Ethics, Law and the Challenge of Cognitive Science

Many questions come to the mind if one starts thinking about morality and the law - questions about the epistemological or ontological status of morality, its content, motivating force or cognitive accessibility. They concern the content of norms, the enigma of justice and the demands of human solidarity. The universality, particularity or relativity of morality and material legal standards is as much an issue as the general relation of morality and the law.
