Increasing social norms of moral circle expansion/cooperation
Moral circle expansion
International cooperation on existential risks and other impactful issues is largely downstream of social norms of, for example, whether foreigners are part of one’s moral circle. Research and efforts to encourage social norms of moral circle expansion and cooperation to include out-group members could potentially be very impactful, especially in relevant countries (e.g., US and China) and among relevant decision-makers.
