Hello

I’m a philosopher, currently a faculty member of the
Department of Philosophy, Logic & Scientific Method at the London School of Economics.

I’m also the Director of the Centre for Philosophy of Natural and Social Science (CPNSS) at the LSE. If you would like to visit the CPNSS, apply for a grant that would be hosted at the LSE, or become an affiliate – please get in touch.

If you like, you can:

I have broad academic interests. But much of my work is about ethics, law, epistemology, and politics.

My little book ‘The Philosophy of Legal Proof’ is out with Cambridge University Press. Here.

A lot of my current work is in legal philosophy: foundational questions about what legal systems are supposed to do, empirical questions broad and narrow (from legal anthropology on the history of punishment, to the latest jury research), to evaluating avenues for reforming the law and legal institutions.

Feel free to get in touch! Interested PhD researchers are welcome to contact me. (But admissions decisions are made by the Dept!)
