Susanne specializes in normative ethics and applied ethics, with key focuses on the philosophy of death, war ethics, self-defense, and moral decision-making under uncertainty. Her work bridges theoretical rigor with real-world moral dilemmas in conflict, aging, and resource distribution.
Her recent publications (2020–2025) emphasize defensive harm, risk imposition, war ethics, and death philosophy. These contributions explore tensions between moral rights enforcement, distributive justice, and the ethical implications of aging, death, and uncertainty in decision-making.
Research Team: She collaborates with doctoral candidate Agnes Kandlbinder (URPP Human Reproduction Reloaded) and postdoctoral researcher Philipp Reichling (Moral Philosophy and Applied Ethics).
