Deontic Reasoning based on Inconsistency Measures
Kees van Berkel
Assistant Professor (Tenure Track)
My core research interests are in logical and argumentative perspectives on normative reasoning. This involves the investigation of problems in logic, AI, and philosophy. It includes the study of norm explanations in AI, the logical analysis of meta-ethical principles in deontic agency logics, prooftheoretic approaches for nonmonotonic normative reasoning, and argumentative characterizations of defeasible deontic logic.

Professor of Logic in Philosophy and Artificial Intelligence
Christian is a full professor of logic in philosophy and artificial intelligence at the Institute for Philosophy II, Ruhr University Bochum. He is an expert on nonmonotonic logic and logical argumentation. Among other things, he has been investigating nonmonotonic approaches to handling deontic conflicts, deontic detachment principles and proof theoretic approaches in deontic logic.
