The world is very young, and has but just begun to cast off injustice. Harriet Taylor Mill |
I am a Senior Lecturer in the Philosophy Department at The University of Edinburgh. I previously held academic positions at Stanford University, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and New York University. I received my PhD in Philosophy at Princeton University, supervised by Gideon Rosen, and a BA in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics from Balliol College, Oxford. I grew up in Glasgow (pictured). Nowadays, I live in rural East Lothian, with my partner and our two young children. My central research project is the development of an ethical theory based on an ideal of mutual care. This approach aims to integrate standards of justification in the ethics of economics, political philosophy, and moral philosophy. I am collaborating on two applications of this approach: to the organisation of pharmaceutical care, especially in Scotland; and to localised political and economic policies, in particular Community Wealth Building. At The University of Edinburgh, we are developing a research cluster addressing alienation, recognition, care, and solidarity. More information soon. In the meantime, feel free to reach out if you wish to collaborate with us on these topics. Marcus Arvan and I run New Work in Philosophy. Feel free to reach out if you have related questions.
