Yes! So exciting to see this call for abstracts on the Popular Culture and Philosophy blog<\/a>!<\/p>\n

Contributors are welcome to submit abstracts on any topic of philosophical interest that pertains to The Good Place. The focus of this collection is, specifically, philosophical topics in The Good Place, but papers that connect to other work by series creator Mike Schur or the actors are also welcome, so long as the points made can be explicitly tied back to The Good Place.
\nTopics may include, but are not limited to:<\/p>\n
\n
\u00a0The practice of philosophy: What happens when you turn thought experiments into real experiments? Do the characters live up to the standards of the philosophers they discuss? What is the role and value of philosophy in the public sphere?<\/li>\n
Ethical theories: How does the show use different ethical theories (Virtue ethics, Utilitarianism, Kantian Ethics, Contractualism, Moral Particularism, etc.)? Do the characters really embody the ideals that they discuss? What is the audience to do with these mini-ethics lessons? Can ethics be taught by reading ethicists? Do we really need to be mortal to have a concept of morality?<\/li>\n
Existentialism and meaning: how does the show engage the idea of an authentic self? What is the role of other people in the quest for an authentic self? How does the show depict the thought of Sartre, Camus, and Kierkegaard?<\/li>\n
Gender in the Good Place: How does the show depict women doing philosophy? How is the audience encouraged to think about women and women\u2019s agency? Does Janet have a gender? Does Michael?<\/li>\n
Death and the afterlife: What is the meaning of death and dying? How does the vision of the afterlife in The Good Place relate to other televised afterlifes? Can it possibly make sense to run an afterlife on a points system? Is a non-religious afterlife really non-religious?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Proposals are not limited to these topics and we welcome submissions on other topics that connect the show to religion, philosophy, and contemporary culture.<\/p>\n
Please feel free to forward this to anyone writing within a religious or philosophic discipline who might be interested in contributing.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
