If you have conservative sensitivities, can you also be an egalitarian? I think so. A forthcoming paper on a theme that Jerry Cohen discussed in one of my favourite philosophy pieces. philpapers.org/rec/GHECAJ

Here's Jonathan Shedler saying, in effect, that we don't know what gender dysphoria is - the term is an abstraction that might mean a variety phenomena, perhaps too different to be helpfully denoted by the same concept. Same is true about "gender identity".

Some problems go away if ignored long enough. How to teach after the advent of ChatGPT is not one of them. My view is that what we train need not be the same as what we assess. Discussion at Justice Everywhere: justice-everywhere.org/education/what…

This handbook to the philosophy of human rights, edited by Jesse Tomalty and Kerri Woods is out (at an infuriatingly exorbitant price!) Lovely experience to work with them and contribute a piece on children's human rights. routledge.com/The-Routledge-….

If the positions of advantage in a society reward much in excess of what justice allows, or are unjust because they involve illegitimate power, should we still care about fair equality of opportunity to access them? I think not, for reasons I give here: philpapers.org/archive/GHEOSI…

Even if justice requires the abolition of inheritance, procreative liability and parental love generate duties that justify some bequests, limited in size and form. Or so I argue in this paper, now forthcoming in Ethics: philpapers.org/rec/GHEPPI

How can we use everybody's time in the classroom well, given that many students seem to be reading only AI-generated summaries of papers? Here's what I learned from others and my own experience, and an invitation to contribute ideas (or complaints): justice-everywhere.org/general/worse-…

Join the club of philosophers and anarchists, who wonder whether those who bring children into the world should have the legal right to also bring them up, and if yes, for what reason: blog.apaonline.org
