摘要

While existing literature has not thoroughly examined the cultural implications of automated vehicle (AV) deployment, the importance of cultural factors in ethical decision-making is well recognized. As China leads in autonomous driving road testing, it faces unique ethical and legal challenges shaped by its cultural context. This book explores Chinese ethical and legal perspectives on the moral and regulatory issues surrounding AVs. By focusing on Confucian virtues and Daoist values, the project highlights how these cultural elements influence Chinese ethics and attitudes toward AV technology. It also addresses the complexities of navigating competing interests within China’s distinct socio-legal and cultural landscape when developing legal regulations and liability frameworks for AVs. This book serves as a valuable resource for Chinese policymakers, offering insights and guidelines to inform the development and implementation of AVs in society.
