Jonathan is a Lecturer in Jurisprudence at 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏, Law School.
His research is in legal and political philosophy, and in criminal and constitutional law.
Jonathan’s research is in normative legal and political philosophy, in general jurisprudence, and in the theory of criminal and constitutional law. In political philosophy his overall aim is to do justice within a perfectionist and comprehensive liberal framework to some of the intuitions that push many towards ‘public reason’ accounts of politics. Recent work has focused on the morality of state paternalism and on the value of respect. More generally, he is interested in the relationships between democracy, authority, justice, and legitimacy. In criminal law he is currently working on the idea of dishonesty in theft and related offences.
Jonathan teaches Theories of Law and Justice, Philosophical Perspectives on the Common Law, and Criminal Law.
