You will be working with Professor Sorin Baiasu and other members of his Advanced Grant 'Kantian Justice: A Desert-sensitive Responsibility-enhancing Theory' (KantianDESERT), a project selected by the European Research Council (ERC) and funded by the UK Research and Innovation (UKRI).
The project is designed to formulate a new model of distributive justice in response to growing global economic disparities.
Kantian DESERT is designed to produce not only significant scientific impact (a new research agenda and opening up new avenues for research), but also socio-political impact - it promises to break the cycle of structural economic injustice and to contribute to a fairer and more stable society.
You will join the Department of Philosophy within the School of the Arts, as part of an exciting and cutting-edge multi-million-Euro research project that is designed to address some of the most pressing research questions on justice. This is a unique opportunity for an individual with research administrative experience and passionate about the implications of research in moral and political philosophy for specific relevant aspects of our societies. The post is ideal for a person with previous experience of working as part of a funded research project, co-operating with academic and non-academic partners, and who is also a strong team player.
