Alex, if you are specifically interested in the research strategy of 'ethicizing' analytic objects, the following exchange might be a good starting point: Kraemer, Felicitas, Kees Overveld, and Martin Peterson. 2010. “Is There an Ethics of Algorithms?” Ethics and Information Technology 13 (3): 251–60. doi:10.1007/s10676-010-9233-7. Anderson, Robert J., and Wesley W. Sharrock. 2013. “Ethical Algorithms: A Brief Comment on an Extensive Muddle.”, http://www.sharrockandanderson.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/03/Ethical-Algo... Taken together, the two articles highlight some of the (fascinating) issues that arise from adding epithets like 'ethical,' 'neutral,' 'moral', etc. to computational phenomena.

Nick Seaver and I had been trying to keep tabs on this scholarship. Many of the pieces on this list, especially in sections 0.2, 1.1, and 1.2.

Hi list,
I've been running into a lot of writing criticising the notion of "algorithms are neutral" recently, but yet to find a scholarly work
that
tackles the subject yet. Any recommendations?
Here are some examples for the types of arguments I'm interested in:
