Joseph Mazor completed his PhD in the interdisciplinary Political Economy and Government Program at Harvard University. His primary research interests lie in the intersection of normative political theory and economics, with a particular focus on questions of distributive justice. In his dissertation he examines the normative foundations of natural resource property rights and argues that justice requires a highly egalitarian distribution of natural resource wealth. Joseph also has a secondary research interest in deliberative democracy. He was a Graduate Fellow at the Harvard Project on Justice, Welfare, and Economics in 2007-2008 and a Graduate Fellow at the Harvard Center for Ethics in 2008-2009.

Laura Valentini is Junior Research Fellow in Politics at The Queen's College, Oxford. In Princeton she plans to complete a book tentatively titled Justice in a Globalized World: A Unified Framework, which develops a coercion-based account of the conditions of applicability of justice to the international arena, and she will also investigate the question of whether a just global order should be organized democratically. Besides global justice, she is interested in the relation between ideal normative theory and non-ideal circumstances, and in constructivist approaches to justification. Recent and forthcoming publications include: 'On the Meta-Ethical Status of Constructivism: Reflections on G.A. Cohen's "Facts and Principles"' (with Miriam Ronzoni), Politics, Philosophy & Economics (2008); 'Egalitarian Challenges to Global Egalitarianism: A Critique' (with Christian Barry), Review of International Studies (July 2009) and 'On the Apparent Paradox of Ideal Theory', Journal of Political Philosophy (forthcoming, 2009).
