Since the early 1960s, environmental issues have become increasingly prominent in the theoretical-political debate, leading to an innovative integration with some of the major existing political doctrines and philosophies. Eco-socialism, eco-Marxism, eco-pacifism, eco-feminism, libertarian ecologism, green liberalism, and Catholic integral ecology are only some of the articulations of the new ecological political thought over the decades, indicating the relevance held by environmental issues in various political cultures.

As AI systems become more widespread, it is important to consider how different cultures and values may affect their implementation. In Japan, a nation that has traditionally placed great importance on the human element of employer-employee relationships, the adoption of automated management systems has not been without issues. While such systems can provide greater objectivity in assessing worker performance, they can also be personally invasive and violate long-standing bonds of trust.
