Alain Létourneau

Alain Létourneau is a full Professor in the Department of Philosophy and Applied Ethics, serving as part of the institution's teaching staff (Personnel enseignant) with primary focus on academic instruction and philosophical research.

His research spans three core domains: Social and Political Philosophy with concentrated work on Governance structures; Applied Ethics addressing intervention methodologies, group communication dynamics, and environmental ethics challenges; and comprehensive Theories and Practices of Argumentation. This interdisciplinary approach bridges theoretical frameworks with practical ethical dilemmas across societal contexts, particularly examining how argumentation functions in collective decision-making processes and environmental policy development.
