About Mattias Gunnemyr
Mattias Gunnemyr is a researcher in the Financial Ethics group at the University of Gothenburg, associated with the Sustainable Finance Lab and Mistra Finbio. He is focusing on ethical issues in relation to collective harm problems within finance, and on how to measure companies' and investors' impact on the climate and on biodiversity. Since 2021, he holds Ph.D. in practical philosophy from Lund University. Like his current project, his Ph.D. thesis concerns the topic of collective harm. In it, he examines what different accounts of why individual agents might have reasons to, e.g., reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases, and of why and when they might be blameworthy for not doing so. Apart from this, Gunnemyr has also published works on structural injustice, primarily concerning Iris Marion Young’s social connection model. He is also co-editing several edited volumes, the latest of which is The Ethics of Inefficacy, Routledge, about the inefficacy problem and collective harms.
