Visiting Scholars and Collaborators

1. Julian Culp

   Visiting Student Research Collaborator

   Julian Culp is doctoral research fellow at the Centre of Advanced Study “Justitia Amplificata” at the Goethe University in Frankfurt. His research interests are political and moral philosophy, and his work has appeared in the journal Analyse & Kritik. While at Princeton he will be working on an approach to global justice that moves beyond the dichotomy between statism and cosmopolitanism.

2. Dorothea Gädeke

   Visiting Student Research Collaborator

   Dorothea Gädeke is a doctoral research fellow in political theory at the Normative Orders research center at Goethe University in Frankfurt and an instructor in political theory at TU Darmstadt, Germany. Her research interests focus on issues in international political theory and cover theories of global justice, ethics of foreign aid, ethics of migration and refugee policy, neo-republicanism, and democratic theory. While in Princeton she will be working on her dissertation that deals with normative challenges of democracy promotion from a neo-republican perspective. The part she is going to concentrate on addresses the question of whether and under what conditions democracy promotion might have to be conceived of as a means to dominate other peoples and/or individuals.

3. Jonathan Kuyper

   Visiting Student Research Collaborator

   Jonathan Kuyper comes to Princeton from The Australian National University where he is Ph.D. student in the International Relations and Political Science departments. He is housed in the Centre For Deliberative Democracy and Global Governance under the supervision of John Dryzek. His thesis focuses on the role of institutional development in terms of prospects for global democratization and will import insights from historical institutionalist theory to analyze the causal mechanisms which underpin democratization efforts. Jonathan has been awarded an Endeavour Fellowship to visit Princeton this fall, and has won other awards and fellowships to visit (among others) Oxford University and the European University Institute in Florence during his doctoral work.

   Jeff McMahan, a professor of philosophy at Rutgers University, is working on a two-volume study of the ethics of killing. The first volume, which covers such issues as abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, and the killing of nonhuman animals, was published in 2002. He is currently working on the sequel, which will explore the ethics of killing in self-defense, in war, and as a mode of punishment. He is also writing two shorter, more accessible books on war. One, based on the Uehiro lectures presented in Oxford in spring 2006, addresses issues of responsibility and liability in war. The other, based on the Hourani lectures at the University of Buffalo in fall 2006, deals with broader issues in the morality of war, including humanitarian intervention and preventive war.
