Autorenporträt
Andrew I. Cohen, Ph.D., is a Professor of Philosophy and the Director of the Jean Beer Blumenfeld Center for Ethics at Georgia State University. He is the author of Philosophy, Ethics, and Public Policy (Routledge, 2015) and Apologies and Moral Repair: Rights, Duties and Corrective Justice (Routledge, 2020). He has edited or co-edited books on applied ethics and public policy. His current research focuses on the requirements of corrective justice. Cohen currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Association for Practical and Professional Ethics. With Jennifer A. Samp and Kathryn McClymond, Cohen investigated moral injury through a study funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities. Kathryn McClymond, Ph.D., is Provost and Vice President of Academic Affairs, Oglethorpe University. Prior to that, McClymond was a Professor of Religious Studies at Georgia State University where she served as Department Chair and Associate Dean for Faculty Affairs. McClymond is a comparative scholar of religions, with a particular interest in religion, ritual, and violence. McClymond's most recent book, Ritual Gone Wrong: What We Learn from Ritual Disruption (2016), examines a range of case studies of ritual gone wrong, exploring what we learn about the nature of ritual itself by studying ritual mistakes, sabotage, misappropriation, and failure. Her first book, Beyond Sacred Violence: A Comparative Study of Sacrifice (Georgia Author of the Year Award 2009), argued against prevailing conceptions of sacrifice as a violent, destructive activity.
