Profile
Samuel Mortimer is working with Alan Morrison, Professor of Law and Finance at Oxford Saïd, on a project exploring the normative foundations of trust, especially in the light of the fourth industrial revolution and the rise of generative AI.

Samuel’s research on meaningful work has been published in the Journal of Business Ethics: 'What Makes Work Meaningful?' gives a new account of meaningful work, arguing that our commitments can create distinctive reasons to pursue certain work, and that it is the presence of these distinctive reasons that makes work meaningful.
