Biography
I am an Associate Professor in Practical Philosophy at Erasmus University Rotterdam. Before coming to Rotterdam, I taught political philosophy at Cambridge, Leiden, and KU Leuven.
My work revolves around distributive ethics, democratic theory, the history of political thought (especially Kant, Hegel and Marx), and Marxism. Broadly construed, these are also my areas of supervision of graduate students.
