Online courses in Political Philosophy
I will be teaching on all three runs of the Political Philosophy: An Introduction course this academic year.The first one is fully booked, but there may be a waiting list.
Only the next one will be available to book at any one time. Once it commences booking is opened for the following one, so note down the date when booking comes available on your chosen run as it usually fills up!
Tuesday Evening Classes in central Oxford
Spaces are currently available on both my upcoming evening classes.What Would an Economically Equal Society Look Like?
October to December 2019
Many people assume that a just society should aim at equality between all citizens. But what does this actually mean? How does equality trade off with other values? Do people's choices matter? In this course we consider rival visions of an equal society.
International Ethics and Global Justice: What Do We Owe Those beyond the Border?
January to March 2020
Explore the ethical and economic issues arising from an unequal world with borders. This course considers whether and why we have more responsibility for our fellow citizens and the implications for trade, aid, tax and immigration.
Saturday Day School on Post-truth in North Oxford
On the 30th of May 2020 Dr Julia Weckend and I are offering a day school where we consider whether we are now living in a post-truth world and how this relates to philosophical ideas about truth.Truth in a Post-Truth World
It is said we have entered a post-truth age. Has philosophical skepticism, cultural change or new technology led us on this path? What is truth anyway? This day unpacks the notion of truth, why it might be changing and whether it is still relevant today.
Summer course in Oxford
I will again be offering an accredited summer school course in 2020 at the Oxford University Summer School for Adults. The course webpage is not yet live but hopefully it will be soon and you can find it via the link above.Can economic inequality be justified? Should some get more than others?
I gave a lecture on this topic at the 2019 summer school which can be found here.
The week-long course will be in early August.

oooh - there is currently only one place left on the January to March 2020 evening class: International Ethics and Global Justice: What Do We Owe Those beyond the Border?
Will have to see if we can get a bigger room"
Good news - the January to March 2020 evening class: "International Ethics and Global Justice: What Do We Owe Those beyond the Border?" has been moved to a larger room.
There are four places available at the time of commenting!
Update: "International Ethics and Global Justice: What Do We Owe Those beyond the Border?" is fully booked but there is a waiting list feature. As this course has been popular I am hoping to repeat it in 2020-1.
The Political Philosophy online course is also full and again it is worth going on the waiting list. This runs every term though, so there are plenty of opportunities!
Update: Due to the coronavirus outbreak the Day school on Post Truth and Summer school course on 'justifications for inequality' have been cancelled. There are extra places available on the online introduction to political philosophy course available, however.
Not sure how other future courses will be affected, but they aren't listed here anyway.
