Dr Julie Ponesse: The Ethics of the Individual vs the Collective
Having taught at universities in Canada and the US for 20 years, Dr. Ponesse was faced with a difficult decision in the Autumn of 2021 when she saw her academic career fall apart for refusing to comply with a Canadian university's COVID vaccine mandate.
In December 2021, Dr. Ponesse released a book entitled My Choice: The Ethical Case Against Covid-19 Vaccine Mandates, where she shares her personal story and examines the ethical and philosophical dimensions of the pandemic response.
In tonight’s podcast, we look at the importance of critical-thinking and the ethical considerations that underpin the idea of making sacrifices for the ‘greater good’ and explore the differences between action that emerges from free will versus that which is arises from a coercive force.
Dr. Julie Ponesse has a PhD in Philosophy with areas of specialization in ethics and ancient philosophy. She has a Masters in Philosophy with Collaborative Specialization in Bioethics from the University of Toronto
