Research

I’m currently working on a monograph on justice in child-rearing, under contract with Oxford University Press.

I am also working with Adam Swift on the question of duties towards our near and dear, and on a paper about taking responsibility for the state of our personal relationships, both for the good and for the bad things in them.

In addition, I’m wrapping up older projects on the value of the principle of fair equality of opportunity in unjust circumstances (which branched out in a couple of papers).

And I’m planning another book, on gender justice. It will be about gender norms, what is wrong with them and how to change them. Turns out this is particularly complicated if we must at the same time confront other injustices, such as economic maldistributions, domination (in the republican sense) and serious inequalities in the relative enjoyment of personal relationship goods. Still, progress is possible.

You can read a slightly older, but more detailed narrative about my work on childrearing here.
