My areas are philosophy of law and ethics (broadly concieved). I'm currently juggling three projects. I'm finishing a mongraph book on which I've been working for several years. As its title -- Promise, Obligation, Agreement -- suggests, it has three largely independent parts. The other project is a study of so-called expressive theories of discrimination, theories that evaluate discrimination (i.e. its propriety) by what it expresses or means. I seek to accommodate the insights of these theories within a broadly consequentialist normative framework. The third project is my unfinished business of putting justice in its place: a study of the relation between (various areas of) law and (various kinds of) justice.
This is a one-page research statement. See my research statement for more detail.
