About
Antonio Carnevale is a scholar whose work sits at the intersection of robotics ethics, legal regulation, and philosophy of technology. His research has made significant contributions to the European debate on how emerging robotic technologies should be governed, guided by human rights principles and fundamental values. His most influential work, "RoboLaw: Towards a European Framework for Robotics Regulation" (2016), has garnered 62 citations and represents a landmark contribution to the still-nascent field of robot law, helping lay conceptual groundwork for policy frameworks across Europe. Alongside his regulatory scholarship, Carnevale explores the profound humanistic dimensions of robotics — examining how robots might improve the lives of disabled and chronically ill individuals, whether artificial systems can develop deeper self-knowledge than humans themselves, and how technology reshapes personal identity and social relationships. His philosophical inquiry into social robots and the concepts of alienation and recognition reflects a consistent concern for what technology means for human dignity and sociality. Across his body of work, Carnevale bridges jurisprudence, ethics, and anthropology, making him a distinctive voice in European techno-ethical discourse.
