My research interests focus on the intersection of law and ethics, viewing questions about the former as an application of the latter. In both, we are tasked with asking how we – either as individual persons or a political entity – should treat others. My work addresses topics relevant to both areas (e.g. consent and justification of punishment) and applies the tools of one trade to another (e.g. philosophy’s possible worlds semantics to but-for causation in tort law).
