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 have previously taught at Stanford University, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and New York University. Nowadays, I live in Glasgow (pictured here) with my partner and our two young children. 

I am currently working towards a systematic ethical theory based on the requirement to care about one another. The ambition is to unify standards of justification in moral philosophy, political philosophy, and the ethics of economics.     

You are welcome to send questions or comments on anything about my areas of research, teaching, PPE, or public philosophy - especially if you are a student interested in related issues. Please accept my apologies if my reply rate is slower than usual. My email address is bmaguire at ed dot ac dot uk. My C.V. is available here.
