Die Finanzkrise hat nicht nur Kapital vernichtet – es wurde auch in vielen Fällen Vertrauen verspielt. Das erschwert Beratern ihr Tagesgeschäft. Es sei denn, sie münzen die Situation in eine Chance um: Wichtiger als der Ruf der Branche ist für den Kunden die konkrete Erfahrung, wie kompetent Berater Produkte erläutern, wie fair sie Risiken offen legen, wie bedacht sie darauf sind, Vermögen zu erhalten, wie konsistent sie daran arbeiten, ihren Kunden finanzielle Sicherheit und Unabhängigkeit und letztlich auch mehr Lebensfreude zu ermöglichen. An diesem Punkt setzt dieses Buch an. Es wurde geschrieben, um die Beratungstätigkeit zu bestätigen und zu bereichern – nicht deren bankfachlichen Teil, sondern das Zusammenwirken mit den Kunden. In drei Teilen gibt es Denkanstöße zu einem ethischen, partnerschaftlichen und stilvollen Umgang mit Kunden.

Free Download Ethics in Artificial Intelligence: Bias, Fairness and Beyond by Animesh Mukherjee, Juhi Kulshrestha, Abhijnan Chakraborty, Srijan Kumar
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 150 Pages | ISBN : 9819971837 | 10.1 MB
This book is a collection of chapters in the newly developing area of ethics in artificial intelligence. The book comprises chapters written by leading experts in this area which makes it a one of its kind collections. Some key features of the book are its unique combination of chapters on both theoretical and practical aspects of integrating ethics into artificial intelligence. The book touches upon all the important concepts in this area including bias, discrimination, fairness, and interpretability. Integral components can be broadly divided into two segments – the first segment includes empirical identification of biases, discrimination, and the ethical concerns thereof in impact assessment, advertising and personalization, computational social science, and information retrieval. The second segment includes operationalizing the notions of fairness, identifying the importance of fairness in allocation, clustering and time series problems, and applications of fairness in software testing/debugging and in multi stakeholder platforms. This segment ends with a chapter on interpretability of machine learning models which is another very important and emerging topic in this area.

Free Download Trust and Fairness in Open, Distributed Systems by Adam Wierzbicki
English | PDF | 2010 | 256 Pages | ISBN : 3642134505 | 3.3 MB
This book is an attempt to bring closer the greater vision of the development of Social Informatics. Social Informatics can be de?ned as a discipline of informatics that studies how information systems can realize social goals, use social concepts, or become sources of information about social phenomena. All of these research directions are present in this book: fairness is a social goal; trust is a social concept; and much of this book bases on the study of traces of Internet auctions (used also to drive social simulations) that are a rich source of information about social phenomena. The book has been written for an audience of graduate students working in the area of informatics and the social sciences, in an attempt to bridge the gap between the two disciplines. Because of this, the book avoids the use of excessive mathematical formalism, especially in Chapter 2 that attempts to summarize the theoretical basis of the two disciplines of trust and fa- ness management. Readers are usually directed to quoted literature for the purpose of studying mathematical proofs of the cited theorems.

Free Download Beyond Justice as Fairness: Rethinking Rawls from a Cross-Cultural Perspective by Paul Nnodim

Beyond Justice as Fairness: Rethinking Rawls from a Cross-Cultural Perspective, by Paul Nnodim, explores the three foundational topics in Rawls’s theories of justice-social justice, multiculturalism, and global justice-while deconstructing ideas of democratic citizenship, public reason, and liberal individualism latent in Rawls’s treatment of these subjects to uncover their cultural and historical underpinnings. Furthermore, it investigates whether these ideas are compatible with the concept of the person in a non-Western context.

Free Download Fairness and the Goals of International Criminal Trials: Finding a Balance
English | 2023 | ISBN: 0367461641 | 193 Pages | PDF (True) | 7 MB
This book presents a ground-breaking, interdisciplinary study into the various goals assigned to international criminal trials. It starts from the proposition that no hierarchy exists amongst the different goals meaning that trials should strive to achieve all of them in equal measure. This is made difficult by the fact that not all of these goals are compatible and the fulfilment of one may lead to others going unmet. Therefore, a balance must be found if the goals of trial are to be achieved at all. The book posits that fairness should serve as the guiding principle when weighing the different trial goals against one another. It is argued that without fairness international and internationalised criminal courts and tribunals lack legitimacy and without legitimacy they lack effectiveness. The book concludes that international criminal trials must adopt procedures that emphasise fairness to all of the parties and trial participants if they wish to accomplish any of the goals set for them. Each chapter is devoted to identifying and explaining a different trial goal, providing analysis of how that particular goal functions in conjunction with the other goals, and discussing the ways in which a fairness oriented trial model will help achieve those goals. The book provides a dynamic understanding of the different trial goals and the importance of fairness in the trial process by drawing on research from a variety of different legal disciplines while also incorporating scholarship rooted in criminology, political theory, international relations, and psychology. The book will be essential reading for researchers, academics and professionals working in the areas of International Criminal Law, Public International Law and Transitional Justice.
