Pereboom, Derk. "Undivided Forward-Looking Moral Responsibility." Monist 104, no. 4 (2021): 484–97. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/monist/onab014.
Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article sets out a forward-looking account of moral responsibility on which the ground-level practice is directly sensitive to aims such as moral formation and reconciliation, and is not subject to a barrier between tiers. On the contrasting two-tier accounts defended by Daniel Dennett and Manuel Vargas, the ground-level practice features backward-looking, desert-invoking justifications that are in turn justified by forward-looking considerations at the higher tier. The concern raised for the two-tier view is that the ground-level practice will be insufficiently responsive to the forward-looking aims that are held to justify it. On the single-tier alternative, forward-looking considerations can more readily motivate substantial revisions, which the practice, due to serious and pervasive deficiencies, requires.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract I propose an account of how our forward-looking moral and epistemic responsibility practices arose, how they related to backward-looking responsibility practices, and what makes them stable. This account differs in several ways from prominent theories already in the literature. Traditionally, forward-looking accounts of responsibility are framed third-personally in terms of social control and neglect the perspective and agency of the responsible person. The account I develop allows that there are third-personal, control-based aspects of our responsibility practices, but it also makes room for the first-personal perspective of the responsible agent and emphasizes the role of partner choice and cooperative planning and action. Whereas existing research focuses on forward-looking accounts of the practice of holding others responsible, I offer an account of forward-looking practices of taking responsibility and assigning responsibility. I hope thereby to provide a richer and more plausible framework in which to think about responsibility and our practices related to it.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract Forward-looking aims tend to play a much less significant role than retribution in justifying criminal punishment, especially in common law systems. In this paper I attempt to reinvigorate the idea that there are important forward-looking justifications for criminal law and punishment by looking to social theories of responsibility. I argue that the criminal law may be justified at the institutional level because it is a part of larger responsibility practices that have the effect of bolstering our reasons-responsiveness by making us sensitive to the potential reactive attitudes of a larger societal audience. I further claim that forward-looking effects may justify criminal law institutions even if retribution is the primary aim of assigning punishments to specific offenders.

I am going to be discussing a mode of moral responsibility that anglophone philosophers have largely neglected. It is a type of responsibility that looks to the future rather than the past. Because this forward-looking moral responsibility is relatively unfamiliar in the lexicon of analytic philosophy, many of my locutions will initially strike many readers as odd. As a matter of everyday speech, however, the notion of forward-looking moral responsibility is perfectly familiar. Today, for instance, I said I would be responsible for watching my nieces while they swam. Neglecting this responsibility would have been a moral fault. When people marry, they undertake responsibilities, of moral import, of fidelity and mutual support. When people have children, they accrue moral responsibilities to feed, rear, and educate them. Not all forward-looking responsibilities are moral. While finishing this essay, I have had to keep an eye on a number of my administrative responsibilities, and, while reading it, you may well be occasionally distracted by some of your own. The notion of a responsibility that we accrue or take on, to look out for some range of concerns over some range of the future, is, then, perfectly familiar. Because this common notion of forward-looking responsibility has not been integrated into recent moral theory, however, my philosophical discussion of it will initially seem strange.

Two large-scale surveys conducted in Israel (Study 1A) and the Palestinian Authority (Study 1B) show that the belief by group members that people in the “enemy” group acknowledge their victimhood (i.e., Holocaust and Nakba for Jews and Palestinians, respectively) is associated with Israeli-Jews’ readiness to accept responsibility for Palestinian sufferings and offer apologies. For Palestinians, this belief is linked to a perceived higher likelihood of a reconciled future with Israelis. Three field experiments demonstrate that a manipulated high level of acknowledgment of Jewish victimhood by Palestinians (Studies 2 and 4) and of Palestinian victimhood by Israeli-Jews (Study 3) caused greater readiness to make concessions for the sake of peace on divisive issues (e.g., Jerusalem, the 1967 borders, the right of return) and increased conciliatory attitudes. Additional analyses indicate the mediating role of increased trust and reduced emotional needs in these relationships.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract I argue that to remove all backward-looking grounds and justification from the practice, as some theorists recommend, is to remove (not revise) moral responsibility. The most paradigmatic cases of moral responsibility must feature desert and retributive elements. So, moral responsibility must be (at least partially) backward-looking. When we hold people responsible, one reason we do so is that we believe that they deserve punishment or reward simply in virtue of the action for which we hold them responsible. None of this rebuts responsibility skepticism. For instance, forward-looking theories might adopt Myisha Cherry's proposal: anger as love without blameworthiness.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract In this paper I provide a forward-looking account of the difference between the responsibility of children and the responsibility of adults. I do so by means of criticizing agency-cultivation accounts of responsibility. According to these accounts, the justification for holding a person to a norm is the cultivation of their moral agency, and children are, just like adults, considered responsible to the extent that they can have their moral agency cultivated in this manner. Like many forward-looking accounts, these accounts claim that the purpose of holding adults to norms is similar to the purpose of holding children to norms. I argue that the justifications for holding adults to norms are different because of the particular ways in which adults can be in moral disagreement with one another, and the consequences that this has. Moral disagreement is relevant to consequentialist accounts because it impacts on whether and how we can secure beneficial outcomes via holding someone to a norm. One of the upshots of this analysis is that the forward-looking justification for holding adults to norms is qualitatively different from how and why we should hold children to norms.

Full textAbstract:
"Over the years, numerous ethical implications in stem cell research have been identified. Consequentially, there is a need to anticipate, prevent and/or mitigate these implications. In literature and in the guidelines of the International Society for Stem Cell Research some of these implications have been reframed into (moral) responsibilities. What exactly is meant by responsibility and which notions of responsibility are important often remains unclear. As a consequence, this encumbers the possibility to deal with these responsibilities in a systematic way. Therefore, the goal of this paper is to discuss how the concept of responsibility in stem cell research could best be understood. This paper addresses which notions of responsibility are relevant for the field of stem cell research. This will be done by first distinguishing between backward-looking and forward-looking notions of responsibilities, where backward-looking responsibilities are about reactive attitudes and forward-looking responsibilities are about what could be expected from someone to prevent ethical implications. Subsequently, ethical implications of and wrongdoings in stem cell research will be categorized in these notions of responsibility. Taking one step back and looking at the different notions of responsibility could help to identify gaps in responsibilities as well as to distinguish obligatory and supererogatory responsibilities. Consequentially, this informs how to prioritize, distribute and delegate responsibilities over the different stakeholders in stem cell research. This paper concludes by discussing the distribution of responsibilities and different strategies to promote responsibility in stem cell research. "

Full textAbstract:
According to Iris Marion Young, a structural injustice occurs when members participating in one or more scheme(s) of social coordination act blamelessly, but the schemes, in combination with norms and background conditions, systematically prevent some from developing their capacities and fulfilling their rights. Because participants are mostly blameless, Young argues that traditional individualist theories of responsibility inadequately address structural injustices. Young instead proposes a social connection theory of responsibility, whereby participants in a structural injustice acquire forward-looking responsibilities to remediate the injustice by organizing, voting, protesting and pressuring institutions. In this paper, I argue that Young’s theory of structural injustice conflates several different moral failings, and that when we correctly disambiguate structural injustices, we can successfully address them with traditional individualist theories of responsibility, both forward-looking and backward-looking.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract:It is a common belief that obesity is wholly or partially a question of personal choice and personal responsibility. It is also widely assumed that when individuals are responsible for some unfortunate state of affairs, society bears no burden to compensate them. This article focuses on two conceptualizations of responsibility: backward-looking and forward-looking conceptualizations. When ascertaining responsibility in a backward-looking sense, one has to determine how that state of affairs came into being or where the agent stood in relation to it. In contrast, a forward-looking conceptualization of responsibility puts aside questions of the past and holds a person responsible by reference to some desirable future state of affairs and will typically mean that he or she is subjected to criticism, censure, or other negative appraisals or that he or she is held cost-responsible in some form, for example, in terms of demanded compensation, loss of privileges, or similar. One example of this view is the debate as to whether the obese should be denied, wholly or partially, free and equal access to healthcare, not because they are somehow personally responsible in the backward-looking sense but simply because holding the obese responsible will have positive consequences. Taking these two conceptions of responsibility into account, the authors turn their analysis toward examining the relevant moral considerations to be taken into account when public policies regarding obesity rely on such a conception of responsibility.

Full textAbstract:
The Korean word ‘chaek-im’(responsibility) is used in different meanings which I respectively name blameworthiness-responsibility, liability-responsibility, role-responsibility, and pseudo-responsibility. The concept of blameworthiness-responsibility refers to the blameworthiness on the actor in relation to an act or its outcome, the concept of liability-responsibility the potential occurrence of a burden, or the burden itself, in relation to a past norm-violating act, and the concept of role-responsibility a kind of task asked for as a norm. Each concept can be classified into sub-meanings.
 Also responsibility can be classified in various ways according to subject, addressee, object, sanction, reason, norm, etc., which are the basic elements of the structure of responsibility, as well as according to the nature, for example, pre-event responsibility v. post-event responsibility, backward-looking responsibility v. forward-looking responsibility, and positive responsibility v. negative responsibility, etc.
 Lastly, I propose response-based theory of responsibility, which, I think, can give the most coherent understanding of the various concepts and structure-comprising elements of responsibility.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose: This study aims to conduct a multidimensional analysis of the meaning, forms, subjects, and conditions of responsibility in educational settings, as well as to explore practical approaches for responsibility education from a psychological perspective. Method: First, a literature review of philosophical and psychological studies was conducted to clarify “ responsibility” as a normative concept. Then, the meaning of responsibility was defined within a new theoretical framework in order to analyze the forms, subjects, and conditions of responsibility. Responsibility was conceptualized as having a multilayered structure, with form categories of “causal”, “liability”, “role”, and “capability”. As for temporal perspectives, responsibility was divided into “backward-looking” and “forward-looking” types and “free will” and “capability” were defined as the conditions for responsibility. Results: Responsibility comprises three elements: identity, event, and prescription. Research findings indicate that even 7-year-old children are willing to assume responsibility, and as they age, they develop various strategies to avoid responsibility. Conclusion: This study emphasizes that responsibility education should provide students with balanced instruction-not only for actively taking appropriate responsibilities but also in defending themselves from the “guilt tripping” or “buck passing” of excessive responsibilities.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractTo explore the emerging and contested issue of business and human rights in the area of climate change, this article provides a critical discussion from the viewpoint of moral philosophy. A novel typology of businesses’ human rights duties (‘duty’ is considered synonymous with ‘responsibility’ here) is proposed. It claims that duties are both forward- and backward-looking. Cases of human rights litigation seeking remedy for climate-related harms are backward-looking, and duties should be determined on the basis of proportion of historical emissions, culpable knowledge and counter-acts to abate climate harms. Businesses’ forward-looking duties, however, depend on their power, privilege, interest and collective abilities. The typology is then assessed against the background of recent legal principles and instruments. It is concluded that moral duties of business reach beyond mere respect for human rights and national jurisdictions in the context of climate change.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractIris Marion Young presents a social connection model on which those, and only those, who participate in structural processes that produce injustice have a forward-looking responsibility to redress the resulting injustice by challenging the structures that produce it (she sometimes calls this a political responsibility [Young 2011]). In Young's view, this is an all-things-considered, albeit discretionary, responsibility. I argue that participation in a structural process that produces injustice is neither necessary nor sufficient for having political responsibilities, and that therefore the social connection model must be rejected. A subtler model is needed, one that depicts participation in a structural process that produces injustice as sufficient (but not necessary) for having pro tanto forward-looking responsibilities to redress the process, unless the participating agent satisfies certain excusing conditions. I suggest the intuitive force of the thought that mere participation gives us political responsibilities can be explained by more fundamental considerations. Hastily, we might conclude that all participants have political responsibilities simply because most of them satisfy at least one of the following conditions: they cause injustice to continue, they are morally responsible for injustice, they benefit from injustice, they have communal ties with the victims of injustice, or they have the capacity to redress injustice.

Full textAbstract:
A more holistic restorative justice process provides an avenue to untangle the web of political, personal and social dynamics that deal with past and future sources of violent conflict. While much of the restorative justice literature is focused on individual healing and personal responsibility, the challenge we face in South Africa is to deal with past human rights abuses in a social context that also recognizes their present relevance. As we look at rebuilding society, we face new challenges in relation to social violence. These challenges (be they political divisions, criminal violence, gender violence) have their roots in the way that our society has created social identities in the past, the tools we have developed for dealing with violence and the unresolved memories of trauma, exclusion and mistrust we inherit from that past. Sometimes this specter of the past subtly shapes our sense of who we are and what our options are, but all too often it also directly intrudes through drawing on old enmities, repeating old but re-legitimated patterns of violence. Building a new society requires transitional justice processes that don?t simply pigeonhole pre- and post-transition conflicts in neat packages to be set aside or adjudicated. The continuities of conflict and violence require an approach that engages with the causes as well as the complex manifestations of our history of social dislocation and disruption.

The conclusions from the research confirm the existence of numerous profits related to the implementation of CSR initiatives undertaken by the company. Considering own actions in a forward-looking way and taking responsibility for them shows that CSR is a bridge between the present and the future of business. Therefore, the further development of this concept can be forecasted.

Full textAbstract:
This article approaches the challenges of the distribution of responsibility for climate change on a local level using the framework of the milieu. It suggests that the framework of the milieu, inspired by Japanese and cross-cultural environmental philosophy, provides pathways to address the four challenges of climate change (global dispersion, fragmentation of agency, institutional inadequacy, temporal delay). The framework of the milieu clarifies the interrelations between the individual, the community, and the local milieu and is open to a conservative view of human communities and an inclusive view of multispecies communities. On this basis, an account of individual responsibility that is anchored in the local milieu and includes a responsibility to collaborate across milieus is developed. It consists of a forward-looking responsibility that balances a degree of contributory responsibility for one’s imprints on the milieu with a degree of capacity-responsibility that varies regarding the individual’s knowledge and powers, and the acceptability of practices within the local milieu.

Purpose: School discipline reformers have presumed that such work is largely a technical task, emphasizing discrete changes to discipline policies and protocols. Yet prior theory and research suggest that emphasizing technical changes may overlook additional and important aspects of reform, namely, the normative and political dimensions within which technical aspects are embedded. Although this earlier work appears relevant to contemporary school discipline reform, the extent to which this theory extends to school discipline remains unestablished. The purpose of this article is to show how this earlier line of theory extends to the topic of school discipline. Method: We draw on data collected as part of a qualitative study in which we conducted semistructured interviews and focus groups with 198 educators from 33 public schools on the topic of school discipline. We applied an equity-minded reform theory to examine technical, normative, and political dimensions of school discipline. Findings and Implications: We found the technical dimension of school discipline was characterized by educators’ strategic use of school resources and capacity building; normative conditions that supported conflict prevention and increased responsibility; and political dynamics in which administrators shifted power to encourage more inclusive discipline strategies. Furthermore, using this model illuminated interrelationships between dimensions, suggesting that unidimensional models—and their related reforms—may overlook nuances of this important reform issue. This theoretical extension provides a more holistic conceptualization than currently used in reform efforts, contributes to earlier lines of scholarship, and opens up new avenues of future inquiry.

The article analyzes the procedural category “indexing of awarded amounts”. A brief analysis of the appearance of the category “indexing” in the procedural law of Russia in the context of historical and economic changes is given. The author concludes that the procedural rules on indexing serve the application of the economic category, not the legal one. The assumption is formulated that the norms on indexing by judicial practice and the scientific community are interpreted exclusively in a retrospective sense. However, in substantive law, the category in question is intended to regulate upcoming payments. In the absence of a unified theoretical understanding, such a situation creates legal inequality, which is unacceptable, according to the Constitution of Russia. In addition, the indexing of late payments awarded by the decision contradicts the principle of nominalism, which works in civil law. The author suggests understanding indexing in the process according to the meaning it has in the economic sphere, that is, as a category of prospective action. This understanding, firstly, eliminates the problem of double payment for one delay (which is a violation of the principle of double responsibility for one act) and, secondly, removes a number of issues arising in practice of its application, which are characteristic of the consideration of substantive disputes.

This study investigates the CSR communication and reporting practice of professional football clubs to examine the range, variety, and visibility of their CSR information communicated to stakeholders. Adopting a case study strategy, this study focuses on Juventus football club (hereby Juventus). NVivo 12 is employed as a qualitative content analysis method to measure the CSR information communicated through the club's 2019/2020 sustainability report and official Facebook page within the same timeframe. The communicative approaches and information variety differ across the two communication channels. The most represented CSR topics in the sustainability report are "society and community" and "education", addressed with a backward-looking approach. Whereas the CSR-related Facebook posts have a more forward-looking approach when addressing certain topics such as "health" and the "Covid-19" pandemic and its impacts on the club. Nevertheless, Facebook users seem to be less engaged by the CSR-related Facebook posts, compared to those dedicated to football-related topics, as confirmed by the limited numbers of "likes" or "reactions" across certain posts with CSR-related messages.

Despite their differences, responsibility theories of all types (skeptics, forward-looking, backward-looking) concur on the following conditional: If someone deserved to suffer for an act, then they would be blameworthy for that act. Here I sketch a way of rejecting that conditional. In particular, using some of Śāntideva’s distinctions, I offer a new way of thinking about desert: Wrongdoers deserve to, and do, suffer for their wrongdoings, but they do not deserve our blame. It may be that vice is (part of) its own deserved punishment, whether or not anyone can have the free will required for blameworthiness. More generally, wrongdoers may not deserve negative responses of any kind from anyone else, yet they may still deservedly suffer in proportion to their wrongdoings.

Abstract:In this essay I take issue with the problem of institutional corruption. A number of scholars have recently established a discontinuity thesis, according to which an institution may be corrupt even if its members are not. Against this view, I defend a continuity thesis and argue that institutional corruption can always be traced back to the blameworthy corrupt behavior of individual agents. Certain instances of corrupt behavior spread their effects and tip in a way that subvert (and not simply violate) the public rules that govern an institution. This occurs, I argue, following either summative, morphological, or systemic modalities. I show that such a taxonomy of institutional corruption is useful for the purpose of disentangling and understanding the variety of mechanisms that generate the phenomenon. Most importantly, the taxonomy allows for a more nuanced way of attributing responsibility for political corruption, including collective responsibility. I conclude that a continuity approach offers the tools for diagnosing institutional corruption, but also facilitates the task of formulating answers to political corruption, both from a backward-looking and from a forward-looking perspective.

With the gradual deepening of ethical investment and socially responsible investment and the proposal of sustainable development theory in the new era, ESG investment is developing increasingly. The research found that ESG evaluation is of great significance for the sustainable development of enterprises, and in 2019, 2020, 2021, the ESG information disclosure rate of Chinese listed companies were 25.54%, 25.69% and 30.19%, respectively. The letter rate increased year by year, indicating that China's attention to ESG is gradually increasing. This paper holds that while paying attention to the development and influence of ESG, it is necessary to sort out its theoretical basis and core ideas, and holds that the theory of sustainable development, the theory of economic externality, the theory of corporate social responsibility and the theory of stakeholders are the theoretical basis for the development of ESG.

Abstract This article explores Lyndon Baines Johnsons and George W. Bushs use of key policy terms to justify their education policies. President Johnson foregrounded the key policy term of "opportunity," whereas President Bush emphasized the term "accountability." Conveying a confident, forward-looking view of society opportunity charged the federal government with distributing educational resources among local communities. Replacing confidence with skepticism, accountability shifted the federal role from providing inputs to insisting on outcomes. Accountability situated the federal government as the ultimate authority that set educational standards and determined if local communities met them.

Full textAbstract:
The regulation of executing illegal military orders constitutes a gap in China's criminal law system. In contrast to the internationally evolving paradigm of “no exemption from liability for executing illegal orders, ” China's current criminal law solely stipulates the responsibility of commanders who issue improper orders, while remaining silent on the accountability of subordinate military personnel who execute such illegal military orders. To address this, a model of criminal accountability under the principle of “no exemption for superior orders” could be established within Chapter 10 of China's Criminal Law. This would involve amending Articles 420, 421, and 428 by adding provisos and introducing a new crime of “intentionally executing illegal military orders” in Chapter 10. This approach aligns with the principles of Military Criminal Law and International Criminal Law, ensuring that military personnel violating their duties through the execution of illegal orders face appropriate legal consequences.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract The notion of transgenerational community is usually based on two diachronic interactions. The first interaction consists of present generations taking up the legacy (not only economic, but also institutional, artistic, cultural, and so forth) of past generations and giving it continuity, exercising a form of active agency. The second interaction occurs when present generations pass on their legacy to future generations. This is supposed to expand the boundaries of the community in a transgenerational sense (both backward- and forward-looking). In this article we argue that the transgenerational community can be grounded on a different ontological insight: future generations play the role of fictional actors for present generations, i.e., present generations entertain a present-time interaction with future generations, insofar as future generations are functional for the realization of transgenerational actions. This lays the foundations for more solid community-based bonds of intergenerational justice.

The group of research; consists of 25 teachers who work in primary and secondary schools in Elazığ and Muş. The Vignette that takes place in qualitative data collection techniques is used in the data collection methods. According to the findings obtained from the research; it is determined that the teachers are tend to limit their responsibility with their position and in the event of failure, they are looking for the problem in others and they are reluctant to take responsibility . And also, it was concluded that they give importance to experience and they expect the solution of their problems from the managers. In line with these results, some suggestions were put forward in order to improve the capacity of the organizational learning of schools.

In the new era of the rule of law, the promotion type of law is a new type of law, different from the general traditional sense of the department law. The promotion method responds to social needs and provides governance incentives. Promotion law has a unique legal responsibility distribution system, which exists as a special type of legislation. This paper systematically expounds the legislative characteristics of promoting law, including the specificity of content, the incentive of behavior, the dominance of government and the weakening of legal responsibility. Promoting legislation is a positive and forward-looking legislative model that aims to promote the development of economic, social, cultural and ecological fields through the formulation and implementation of laws and regulations. This legislative method is proactive, guiding, encouraging and coordinated, and can meet the needs of social development and promote the modernization of China's governance system and capacity.

With the growing digital economy and the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in the past two years, video games have become the mainstream entertainment for general public. Some game companies have chosen acquisitions over the past few years to expand their market share and enhance their competitiveness, but acquisitions come with many risks. This paper analyses the strategic intentions and risks of Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard, and puts forward forward-looking suggestions based on the concept of metacomes. It is believed that the meta-universe is the core of the future of the game industry, and Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard helps it occupy a strategic commanding height in the meta-universe field, but it needs to pay attention to antitrust risks and cultural integration problems. To this end, it can be suggested that Microsoft should strengthen cultural management and regulatory responsibility, open platform cooperation, and strengthen meta-cosmic technology research and innovation.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract This article argues that the norm death narrative surrounding the Responsibility to Protect (R2P) has problematic implications for both its critics and defenders. Critical claims that the norm is dead create an overly high benchmark against which to measure the norm. The implication here is that it allows R2P defenders to make the case that the norm is not dead with relative ease. This position is equally problematic, however, as it falls into the trap of downplaying the crisis facing the norm. Put differently, norm studies only advance the arguments to a limited extent and we need to better understand the political environment in which all human rights norms are now located. Building on contemporary reassessments of the false assumptions embodied in the R2P project, the picture presented here is far graver than is commonly found in those studies that conclude the R2P has not declined as critics suggest. Looking forward, three positions present themselves: defence, reform and abandonment of the R2P. Whichever one academics choose to uphold, they must factor in, and respond to, the developments and false assumptions outlined in this article.

Higher education centers, as the most important part of the educational institution in any country, should be able to handle the function of cultural and social rearrangement. In other hand, university students and graduates should be able to try to identify society and innovate in it, and in fact, the university should be able to internalize the values, attitudes, and norms needed by society and subsequent generations in students and train them as creative, innovative, forward-looking people with a broad and at the same time committed and sensitive to the interests, cultural heritage, social and religious interests of the country. In order to achieve this purpose, conducting field studies and researches for understanding cultural and social issues has an important role, this research tries to review the experience of developing a strategic document of university responsibility of one of the major universities to show what issues it is necessary to develop a specific strategy for the development of social responsibility in the universities of the IRAN. This research also describes the experience of how to use balanced scorecard method, shows how this method can be used to formulate strategies in the field of social responsibility of universities and what advantages this method has in comparison with other methods of developing cultural and social strategies.

Full textAbstract:
Structural Integrity (SI) as a single distinct subject has now come of age. It has grown, sometimes painfully, through the activities of many different engineering and scientific disciplines, numerous professional institutions, separate industrial organizations, several university engineering departments and national and international societies. An accelerated impetus has been derived from severe engineering problems and accidents, some of which are briefly reviewed. In the UK and elsewhere the numerous but separate disciplines initially involved in SI have each made valuable contributions. Engineers and scientists attempted to solve practical problems, but without accurate knowledge of the applied stress levels. They were followed by metallurgists, who focused attention on a materials microstructure. Design engineers and manufacturers were unable to incorporate defects of the order of grain size, or less, into their calculations. All were eventually assisted by two important developments. First came the rapid advances in two-and three-dimensional finite element analyses of stress distributions in complex-shaped geometries, and second, the study of cracks by elastic and then elastic-plastic fracture mechanics. When combined, these computer-assisted developments focused attention on the all-important synergistic parameter a. En-route to this improved state of affairs several alternative approaches were investigated to quantify the SI of structures, components and materials, many of these alternatives effectively delaying progress for many years, at great cost. Although the UK has made numerous positive contributions to SI investigations, sometimes due to unfortunate although avoidable accidents, of which many recent incidents are well-documented, future pitfalls and false trails have to be avoided wherever and whenever possible. To achieve this, individual discipline approaches now need to be better integrated at national and international levels. The increasing complexity of engineering components and structures intended to work at higher temperatures, in more aggressive environments, and with greater efficiency, will demand a higher degree of synthesis of effort. Society will demand nothing less Failures due to inappropriate and/or incorrect SI assessments leading to increasing costs to the nation in terms of human, animal and plant life, environmental damage to land sea and air, disruption to societal activities, not to mention the associated Government-sourced budget losses, need to be dramatically reduced. By looking at some industry-university collaborations in SI studies, it is hoped that the issues raised in this lecture will help in plotting the way forward and answering the question ‘Structural Integrity-whose responsibility?’

Climate change is causing substantial structural adjustments to the global economy. Several sectors, such as coal and steel, are undergoing severe problems related to the inevitable transition to a low-carbon economy, while others such as renewables and new environmental adaptation technologies are benefiting substantially. In this context, regulators are beginning to intervene on the legislation, while investors, customers and civil society are looking for alternatives to mitigate, adapt and make these issues more transparent. This article aims to analyze the impact that these changes will inevitably have on banks' balance sheets, introducing new risks but also opportunities. The final purpose is to help banks integrate climate risks into their organizational framework and to provide guidance on the implementation of the recommendations published by the Task Force on Climate-related Financial Disclosures (TCFD) within the broader Financial Stability Board (FSB) objectives and the UN Environment Finance Initiative (UNEP FI). Starting from a long-term perspective, the work suggests considering climate risk as a financial risk, overcoming traditional approaches that focus on reputational risk. This change implies the integration of climate change risk into the logic of Risk Management (Credit, Market and Operational risks) and a consequent sharing of responsibilities with the structures of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). The TCFD recommendations urge banks to use forward looking scenario analyzes, including stress tests, to evaluate and disseminate the "actual and potential impacts" of climate-related risks and opportunities, suggesting in particular to consider the consequences in terms of two categories of risk: physical and transition risk

As Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies continue to evolve rapidly, Malaysia faces the imperative of establishing a robust regulatory framework to address legal complexities and ensure responsible AI deployment. This paper examines the current landscape of AI legality in Malaysia, analysing existing laws and regulations governing AI applications across various sectors. It identifies key legal challenges, including issues related to data privacy, algorithmic transparency, liability, and ethical considerations. Emphasising the transition from mere legality to ethical responsibility, the paper advocates for a proactive approach in charting the course for AI regulation. The doctrinal research methodology is used in this paper. This paper will first discuss the use of AI in different sectors in Malaysia and then will highlight the various problems associated with it. This study also discusses newly adopted AI regulations by the EU and China, and also the progress of the USA and the UK on AI regulation. It proposes strategies for enacting a forward-looking regulatory framework that integrates ethical guidelines, promotes transparency, fosters collaboration between stakeholders, and establishes mechanisms for accountability. By navigating this trajectory towards responsible AI regulation, Malaysia can unlock the full potential of AI while upholding ethical standards, protecting individual rights, and mitigating risks associated with AI technologies.
