Assistant Professor
Chair for Philosophy and Political Theory
LMU Munich
I am an assistant professor (Akademischer Rat auf Zeit) at the Chair for Philosophy and Political Theory, in the Faculty of Philosophy, at LMU Munich.
My research focuses on the political ethics of the oppressed and on the morality of violent and non-violent resistance.
I hold a Ph.D. in political theory from Harvard University, where I was a graduate fellow of the E. J. Safra Center for Ethics and an inaugural awardee of the Government Department's Sidney Verba Prize for Excellence in Undergraduate Teaching. I also hold an M.Phil. in political theory from the University of Oxford and an A.B. in philosophy from Georgetown University.
