Research & Publications
Current Interests
My main research project concerns the right to science and the ethics of academic publishing.
I am also interested in experimental jurisprudence and the role of intuitions in philosophy, particularly in accounts of the nature of law. Alongside this work, I continue to think about law and coercion and the possibilities of non-coercive legal governance.
