Koji TACHIBANA

Associate ProfessorI study ancient Greek philosophy (esp. Aristotle’s ethics), contemporary virtue ethics, Japanese philosophy (esp. Japanese virtue ethics), and applied ethics (esp. neuroethics and space ethics). Through these studies, I investigate the notion of virtue and its contemporary significance.

Recent Topics of Interests:
I am recently focusing on the Japanese notion of virtue. Although virtue is an ancient notion embraced by both Eastern and Western philosophies, it takes an interesting form in Japan. Japanese intellectual history has been influenced by Shintoism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Christianity. Accordingly, the Japanese notion of virtue includes these values in one way or another. In fact,some Japanese philosophers have struggled to harmonize these values. I think that looking through Japanese notion of virtue can help us develop a new perspective on the notion of virtue.
