Abstract

The article presents an edited transcript of a debate on moral enhancement between John Harris and Julian Savulescu during the "Enhancement: Cognitive, Moral and Mood" conference held at the University of Belgrade in Serbia. Topics discussed include morality's ability to keep up with scientific change and if not, whether it should be compulsory, Harris' skepticism about moral enhancement's value and methodologies, and how to bridge the gap between what people see to be right and how people act.
