The “Neuroscientific Turn” and J. Greene’s Experiments: Ethical and Anthropological Implications

The article discusses the expansion of neuroscientific knowledge beyond biology and medicine over the past two decades. The emergence in the early 2000 and further formulation of neuroethics – a part of this "neuroscientific turn" – became meaningful for philosophy, since it, as an area of study, unites neuroscientific knowledge with ethic and social thought. The authors highlighted the research on moral decision making by J. Green et al. Based on the research conducted, ethical and anthropological conclusions are drawn.
