Abstract:
This paper responds to recent work highlighting the problematic racial politics of predictive policing technologies. Drawing on Michel Foucault’s account of ethics as counter-conduct, I develop a set of ethical techniques for resisting the racial injustice at work in predictive policing. This framework has the advantage, I argue, of not reducing the ethical issues of predictive policing solely to epistemic concerns of transparency. What I suggest is that we think about the ethics of technology less as an epistemic problem than as a problem for action or practice. By thinking of ethics in terms of resistant practices, we can begin to consider a notion of responsibility that holds us and the technologies we bind ourselves to accountable for the harms created by this bond.

Abstract:
For a number of years, groups such as the Jenkins Committee and the SEC have taken steps to make corporate activities more transparent to investors. In addition, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires publicly traded firms to disclose whether they have adopted codes of ethics for their senior financial officers. An implicit assumption is that ethics codes will help firms develop more transparent disclosure policies by enhancing their internal control environments. However, past research (Felo 2000) provides evidence that board involvement in the development, implementation, and maintenance of codes is an important factor in whether ethics codes are related to stronger internal control environments. Using results from Standard and Poor's survey of transparency and disclosure (Patel and Dallas 2002), I find that firms having ethics programs overseen by their boards disclose more overall information, financial information, and board and management information than do other firms. Additionally, they are more likely to disclose information recommended by the Jenkins Committee and to voluntarily provide information recently mandated by the SEC. Although my evidence only demonstrates an association between board oversight of ethics programs and disclosure transparency, it does support mandating greater board involvement in corporate ethics programs as a way to enhance corporate disclosure transparency.

Abstract:
Hoy en día el uso de algoritmos que resuelven o predicen problemáticas en el entorno digital hacen uso de información de los individuos quienes con sus datos nutren las bases que a su vez son el insumo de los análisis de los grandes cúmulos de datos. Sin embargo, es necesario reconsiderar si la información que se recolecta es adecuadamente recogida y protegida. ¿Qué tanto conoce un diseñador de algoritmos sobre la protección de datos personales y del adecuado manejo de los mismos?, ¿cuáles son los límites en el entrenamiento de los algoritmos?, ¿cuáles deberían ser los principios que rigen el diseño de los algoritmos base de la Inteligencia Artificial? La presente contribución busca entender lo que es la ética y la transparencia algorítmica así como la importancia de comprender el manejo de la información que atañe a los individuos cuando se trata del tema de Inteligencia Artificial.

Abstract:
This study focuses on two topics that have heretofore received little attention: ethical standards for publishing tourism research and assessment of the effectiveness of such standards in generating compliance. A random sample of research articles published by 75 tourism journals in 2013 was drawn and 45 were identified that employed the probability sample survey method. Ten rules for ethical reporting of survey results were derived from the World Association for Public Opinion Research Code of Ethics, designed to encourage transparency of method, and applied to the articles. Most articles failed to comply with most of these rules, documenting that the articles did not incorporate the value of research transparency, a foundation of inquiry in social sciences. Recommendations are presented on how to encourage future papers employing this method published in tourism journals to comply with ethical standards for disclosure in order to improve the transparency and credibility of tourism research.

Abstract:
Though far from new, the rhetoric of transparency is on the ascent in public and political life. It is cited as the answer to a vast array of social, political, financial and corporate problems. With the backing of a ‘movement’, transparency has assumed the position of an unassailable ‘good’. This article asks whether the value ascribed to transparency limits political thinking, particularly for the radical and socialist Left. What forms of politics, ethics, of being-in-common, might it be possible to think if we pay attention to secrecy rather than transparency?

Abstract:
Autonomous decision-making machines – ranging from autonomous vehicles to chatbots – are already able to make decisions that have ethical consequences. If these machines are eventually deployed on a large scale, members of society will have to be able to trust the decisions that are made by these machines. For these machines to be trustworthy, their decisions must be overseen by socially accepted ethical principles; moreover, these principles and their role in machine decision-making must be transparent and explainable: it must be possible to explain why machine decisions are made and such explanations require that the mechanisms involved for making them are transparent. Furthermore, manufacturing companies have a corporate social responsibility to design such robots in ways that make them not only safe but also trustworthy. Members of society will not trust a robot that works in mysterious, ambiguous, or inexplicable ways, particularly if this robot is required to make decisions based on ethical principles. The current literature on embedding ethics in robots is sparse. This thesis aims to partially fill this gap in order to help different stakeholders (including policy makers, the robot industry, robots designers, and the general public) to understand the many dimensions of machine- executable ethics. To this end, I provide a framework for understanding the relationships among different stakeholders who legislate, create, deploy, and use robots and their reasons for requiring transparency and explanations. This framework aims to provide an account of the relationships between the transparency of the decision-making process in ethical robots, explanations for their behaviour, and the individual and social trust that results. This thesis also presents a model that decomposes the stages of ethical decision-making into their elementary components with a view to enabling stakeholders to allocate the responsibility for such choices. In addition, I propose a model for transparency which demonstrates the importance of and relationships between disclosure, transparency, and explanation which are needed for societies to accept and trust robots. One of the important stakeholders of robotics is the general public and, in addition to providing an analytical framework with which to conceptualize ethical decision-making, this thesis also performs an analysis of opinions drawn from hundreds of written comments posted on public forums concerning the behaviour of socially autonomous robots. This analysis provides insights into the layperson’s responses to machines that make decisions and offers support for policy recommendations that should be considered by regulators in the future. This thesis contributes to the area of ethics and governance of artificial intelligence.

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to reflect on the importance that deception has had on the efficient functioning of societies and the development of individuals. I attempt to do so by adopting an historical perspective, analysing the development of the notion of lawful deception during the Middle Ages and, mainly, the Early Modern Age through theological and political discourses. The scope of my investigation is pan-European. I examine sources from the major Western territories, but I pay special attention to those produced in the Spanish-Habsburg Empire, which was a major political and cultural entity during this period. My claim is that between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, the West witnessed the formation of what I call an "Ethics of Deception:" a trend of thought that, without challenging the Augustinian prohibition of lying, recognised deception as intrinsic to nature and mankind, thereby justifying its use from moral and political perspectives. I explain how this intellectual process was conducted, fostered by new social realities, and helped by the flourishing of casuistry, tacitism and neostoicism. Furthermore, I argue that the acceptance of deception contributed to the creation of a new view of the world, language and human interaction. A view that is in the very basis of some of the most characteristic features of Baroque art and that opened the door to some of the most transcendental cultural changes of the period, such as the creation of politics governed by reason rather than faith, the secularisation of social behaviour, and the emergence of the notions of individualism, privacy and freedom of thought. For these reasons, I claim that deception played an important role in the shaping of Modernity.

Abstract:
Tout au long de notre travail nous avons essayé, dans un premier temps, de mettre en exergue les progrès réalisés par les réformes législatives et la contribution de la justice administrative en matière de promotion de la transparence dans les marchés publics au Maroc., une comparaison à d'autres réglementations nous a, aussi, paru utile pour nous renseigner des écarts existants et en faire une occasion pour des leçons à tirer des expériences des pays jugés développés. Dans second temps, nous avons essayé de proposer des pistes de réflexion pour les grands problèmes qui demeurent entravant la promotion de la transparence en matière des marchés publics en particulier et de l'éthique dans la gestion de la vie publique en général
Transparency in public procurement management is increasingly needed due to the growth of public expenditure.The mechanisms put in place to safeguard the principles of transparency and ethics are to be constantly refined.In Morocco, according to the official discourse, the country has decided to adopt the international standards of transparency in public procurement; insofar it constitutes the framework of the public action. Hence, it has undergone several reforms.Accordingly, it is within this context that our specific choice to study this subject emanates from.It is therefore important to understand the complexity and challenges of transparency in the management of public procurement.Public procurement is probably one of the areas where regulation is strongly binding.This regulation oversees, more likely than elsewhere, all the actors' behaviours and management practices.Indeed, the dominant logic in the purchasing function is a logic of legal security that overshadows the search for efficiency and economic performance.Throughout our work, we have tried, firstly, to highlight the progress of legislative reform and the contribution of administrative justice in promoting transparency in public procurement in Morocco. A comparison to other regulations seemed useful to inform us of any gaps and was an opportunity to learn from the experiences of the so-considered developed countries.Secondly, we tried to propose exploring the major problems that hinder the promotion of transparency in public procurement in particular and ethics in management of public life in general

Smith, Sean Robert. "An Empirical Analysis of Differences in Environmental Transparency Across Firms." Scholarship @ Claremont, 2013. http://scholarship.claremont.edu/cmc_theses/677.

Full text
Abstract:
In recent years, many firms have voluntarily taken actions to gradually increase the transparency of their corporate social responsibility (CSR) efforts. Using data on a sample of U.S. firms, this paper empirically examines the factors that encourage firms to choose different levels of CSR transparency. This adds to the previous literature that has focused only on the binary decision to engage or not to engage in CSR, as opposed to the extent and comprehensiveness of voluntary CSR reporting. Environmental transparency data are collected from the Roberts Environmental Center (REC) at Claremont McKenna College, while data for firm characteristics and toxic releases are collected from Standard & Poor’s Compustat North American and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Robust regression analysis of environmental transparency shows that consumer, investor, and community stakeholders significantly increase the level of environmental transparency. In addition, environmental transparency is higher among firms that compete internationally relative to those with only a domestic presence.

Full text
Abstract:
This theoretical master’s dissertation explores the cleavage between how audiences and journalists perceive transparency and objectivity through the following research questions: “Can transparency be understood independently of objectivity, or can it be included in a model of objectivity?”, “What are the underlying interests with normative concepts like objectivity and transparency, and what drives the process of replacing objectivity with transparency?” and “Can transparency replace objectivity’s dominance as ethical ideal in journalism?”. The questions are studied through a comparative research design of the main concepts transparency and objectivity and by employing a methodology that consists of secondary data analysis of qualitative data and qualitative meta-analysis. The theoretical framework consists of pragmatic objectivity, the process model of journalists’ roles, paradigm building and boundary maintenance and is applied to the secondary empirical material (academic articles). The results show that transparency is compatible with pragmatic objectivity, and I argue that unifying the ethical ideals is a way forward in order to resolve the contestation between the ethical ideals. The results also show that transparency has not reached the status of a normative role in contemporary news journalism. Furthermore, there are indications that transparency in contemporary news journalism has not replaced objectivity’s dominance, as the journalistic community is generally unwilling to give any genuine insight into its methodology. From a boundary maintenance perspective, the results also show that objectivity is in the process of being defended by journalists, as it is a highly practiced and valued ethical ideal in journalistic communities.

Abstract:
The human cognitive biases that result in anthropomorphism, the moral confusion surrounding the status of robots, and wider societal concerns related to the deployment of artificial intelligence at scale all motivate the study of robot transparency --- the design of robots such that they may be fully understood by humans. Based on the hypothesis that robot transparency leads to better (in the sense of more accurate) mental models of robots, I investigate how humans perceive and understand a robot when they encounter it, both in online video and direct physical encounter. I also use Amazon Mechanical Turk as a platform to facilitate online experiments with larger population samples. To improve transparency I use a visual real-time transparency tool providing a graphical representation of the internal processing and state of a robot. I also describe and deploy a vocalisation algorithm for transparency. Finally, I modify the form of the robot with a simple bee-like cover, to investigate the effect of appearance on transparency. I find that the addition of a visual or vocalised representation of the internal processing and state of a robot significantly improves the ability of a naive observer to form an accurate model of a robot's capabilities, intentions and purpose. This is a significant result across a diverse, international population sample and provides a robust result about humans in general, rather than one geographic, ethnic or socio-economic group in particular. However, all the experiments were unable to achieve a Mental Model Accuracy (MMA) of more than 59%, indicating that despite improved transparency of the internal state and processing, naive observers' models remain inaccurate, and there is scope for further work. A vocalising, or 'talking', robot greatly increases the confidence of naive observers to report that they understand a robot's behaviour when observed on video. Perhaps we might be more easily deceived by talking robots than silent ones. A zoomorphic robot is perceived as more intelligent and more likeable than a very similar mechanomorphic robot, even when the robots exhibit almost identical behaviour. A zoomorphic form may attract closer visual attention, and whilst this results in an improved MMA, it also diverts attention away from transparency measures, reducing their efficacy to further increase MMA. The trivial embellishment of a robot to alter its form has significant effects on our understanding and attitude towards it. Based on the concerns that motivate this work, together with the results of the robot transparency experiments, I argue that we have a moral responsibility to make robots transparent, so as to reveal their true machine nature. I recommend the inclusion of transparency as a fundamental design consideration for intelligent systems, particularly for autonomous robots. This research also includes the design and development of the 'Instinct' reactive planner, developed as a controller for a mobile robot of my own design. Instinct provides facilities to generate a real-time 'transparency feed'--- a real-time trace of internal processing and state. Instinct also controls agents within a simulation environment, the 'Instinct Robot World'. Finally, I show how two instances of Instinct can be used to achieve a second order control architecture.

Abstract:
The thesis deals with financial accounting and taxation; i.e. areas with increased risk of unethical behaviour. It presents and critically evaluates the measures introduced by the European Union, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the authors of Taxparency project - the nongovernmental organisation Transparency International Česká republika and Lexperanto association. The introductory chapters of the thesis offer a brief excursion into the realms of philosophy, law and psychology. Their purpose is to provide a comprehensive summary of the most important findings from these disciplines for better understanding of the meaning and fundamentals of ethics. Subsequently, three key areas of financial accounting and taxation are discussed - non-transparent ownership structures, virtual offices and transfer prices - with the objective to determine the motives of entrepreneurs to use these practices. LuxLeaks case is mentioned as a practical example of unethical behaviour of entrepreneurs, tax advisers as well as of civil servants. The conclusion outlines the Taxparency project. The aim of the thesis is not only to introduce but also critically evaluate the project. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey, the possibilities of the project implementation in the conditions of the Czech Republic are analysed. The official websites of individual institutions and organisations became the main information source for the thesis.

Abstract:
The publication and mass appeal of Richard Thaler and Cass Sunstein's book Nudge: Improving Decisions about Health, Wealth and Happiness (Nudge), in 2008, illuminated behavioural economics, in the public and political domain. Nudging, a technique derived from behavioural economics, offers a fresh element to the long-time debate between paternalism and freedom, since proponents believe it can simultaneously preserve freedom of choice and serve as a means to influence behaviour. Unsurprisingly, in the decade or so since Nudge, private corporations and governments alike have shown great interest in the behavioural steering techniques derived from behavioural economics. This thesis explores the ethical implications and the various means by which governments and the private sector influence behaviour, specifically individual decision making. Since many of the methods overlap in purpose and practice, I make distinct three techniques: nudging, boosting and market advertising. These steering techniques range from transparent and educative to sub-conscious and manipulative methods; as such ethical justification for their employment varies. This thesis concludes by stating transparency as a condition for ethical behavioural influencing since non-transparent or covert methods do not uphold true freedom of choice, Furthermore, the implementation of non-transparent influences carries the potential for further violations of individual autonomy.

Abstract:
AI has quickly grown from being a vast concept to an emerging technology that many companies are looking to integrate into their businesses, generally considered an ongoing “revolution” transforming science and society altogether. Researchers and organizations agree that AI and the recent rapid developments in machine learning carry huge potential benefits. At the same time, there is an increasing worry that ethical challenges are not being addressed in the design and implementation of AI systems. As a result, AI has sparked a debate about what principles and values should guide its development and use. However, there is a lack of consensus about what values and principles should guide the development, as well as what practical tools should be used to translate such principles into practice. Although researchers, organizations and authorities have proposed tools and strategies for working with ethical AI within organizations, there is a lack of a holistic perspective, tying together the tools and strategies proposed in ethical, technical and organizational discourses. The thesis aims to contribute with knowledge to bridge this gap by addressing the following purpose: to explore and present the different tools and methods companies and organizations should have in order to build machine learning applications in a fair and transparent manner. The study is of qualitative nature and data collection was conducted through a literature review and interviews with subject matter experts. In our findings, we present a number of tools and methods to increase fairness and transparency. Our findings also show that companies should work with a combination of tools and methods, both outside and inside the development process, as well as in different stages of the machine learning development process. Tools used outside the development process, such as ethical guidelines, appointed roles, workshops and trainings, have positive effects on alignment, engagement and knowledge while providing valuable opportunities for improvement. Furthermore, the findings suggest that it is crucial to translate high-level values into low-level requirements that are measurable and can be evaluated against. We propose a number of pre-model, in-model and post-model techniques that companies can and should implement in each other to increase fairness and transparency in their machine learning systems.
AI har snabbt vuxit från att vara ett vagt koncept till en ny teknik som många företag vill eller är i färd med att implementera. Forskare och organisationer är överens om att AI och utvecklingen inom maskininlärning har enorma potentiella fördelar. Samtidigt finns det en ökande oro för att utformningen och implementeringen av AI-system inte tar de etiska riskerna i beaktning. Detta har triggat en debatt kring vilka principer och värderingar som bör vägleda AI i dess utveckling och användning. Det saknas enighet kring vilka värderingar och principer som bör vägleda AI-utvecklingen, men också kring vilka praktiska verktyg som skall användas för att implementera dessa principer i praktiken. Trots att forskare, organisationer och myndigheter har föreslagit verktyg och strategier för att arbeta med etiskt AI inom organisationer, saknas ett helhetsperspektiv som binder samman de verktyg och strategier som föreslås i etiska, tekniska och organisatoriska diskurser. Rapporten syftar till överbrygga detta gap med följande syfte: att utforska och presentera olika verktyg och metoder som företag och organisationer bör ha för att bygga maskininlärningsapplikationer på ett rättvist och transparent sätt. Studien är av kvalitativ karaktär och datainsamlingen genomfördes genom en litteraturstudie och intervjuer med ämnesexperter från forskning och näringsliv. I våra resultat presenteras ett antal verktyg och metoder för att öka rättvisa och transparens i maskininlärningssystem. Våra resultat visar också att företag bör arbeta med en kombination av verktyg och metoder, både utanför och inuti utvecklingsprocessen men också i olika stadier i utvecklingsprocessen. Verktyg utanför utvecklingsprocessen så som etiska riktlinjer, utsedda roller, workshops och utbildningar har positiva effekter på engagemang och kunskap samtidigt som de ger värdefulla möjligheter till förbättringar. Dessutom indikerar resultaten att det är kritiskt att principer på hög nivå översätts till mätbara kravspecifikationer. Vi föreslår ett antal verktyg i pre-model, in-model och post-model som företag och organisationer kan implementera för att öka rättvisa och transparens i sina maskininlärningssystem.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the current state of nonprofit museum accountability in the United Kingdom and United States, assessing methods of achieving fiscal and ethical accountability, as well as the factors that have influenced museum codes and policies to that end. The recent development of museum accountability is couched in corporate culture, government influence, and public expectations, making it an interdisciplinary concern. Yet museum professionalisation, including codes of ethics, conflict of interest management, and agreed-upon standards, has received little attention from researchers. This study engages in empirical research to assess museums’ responses to recent regulations, their execution of governance accountability, and the application of internal controls and fiscal transparency measures. These subjects appraise ethical governance and board member duties, in addition to audit practices and best practice policies. Research reveals inadequacies in the museum accountability systems in both Britain and America. As case studies serve to demonstrate, opportunities remain for financial and ethical misconduct, which can damage the public trust in museums. This thesis is the first broad empirical study to explain museum accountability in Britain or America, collating data across the entire museum sector, creating an industry-wide national framework from the quantitative and qualitative findings. No research has reported on the implementation of best practice measures according to the private, public and third sectors, stakeholders, and by the museum industry itself. Ultimately, this thesis provides unique evidence previously lacking in both the UK and US museum sectors, making it possible to posit and assess specific museums against an accurate national accountability framework.
