What Can Political Philosophy Teach Us about Algorithmic Fairness?

Abstract

What does it mean for an algorithmic decision-making system to be “fair” or “non-discriminatory” in terms that can be operationalized? Providing a rigorous understanding of these terms has long been a preoccupation of moral and political philosophers. This article draws on such work to elucidate emerging debates about fair algorithms.
