About

I do mostly moral, political, and legal philosophy.

I went to school, first, in Tel Aviv University, and then at the NYU philosophy department. Since graduating I’ve been at the Hebrew U, on a joint appointment in philosophy and law.

In metaethics, I’ve been defending a shameless, robust kind of realism.

In political philosophy, I’ve been criticizing the dominant Rawlsian kind of political liberalism (in several versions, for several different reasons), and I’ve started to develop a more nuanced version of comprehensive liberalism, focusing on the value (s) of autonomy and related problems.

In legal philosophy, I’ve criticized the standard legal-positivism kind of debate (I’ve also engaged it, but rarely and negatively). More positively, I’ve written on moral and legal luck, and on statistical evidence and various related issues.
