Here is a list of some of my articles and unpublished drafts, roughly arranged by topic. For a full list of publications see my CV.
I am presently working on a book called 'Partiality', which offers a theory about the ethical significance of special relationships. I hope to have a draft to post soon. I am also working on my contribution to a book called Patriotism: A Philosophical Debate, co-authored with Igor Primoratz and John Kleinig and forthcoming with Wiley-Blackwell.
