Abigail카지노 게임 컬렉션™s prior research interests include the philosophy of law, particularly constitutional rights jurisprudence and freedom of speech. Her recent Master of Law카지노 게임 컬렉션™s (LLM) thesis focused on the role of behaviour and speech in online environments, whether online speech can  be considered equivalent to forms of in-person or traditional distance communication, and how this tracks the moral and legal regulation of online environments.

Abigail카지노 게임 컬렉션™s current doctoral research builds upon her MA thesis, which applied Continental philosophy to the problem of technological change and technological determinism in relation to driverless cars. While she is interested in techno-skepticism generally, including the works of Martin Heidegger and Jacques Ellul, her primary focus is on Albert Borgmann and his framework for interpreting the damaging effects technological devices have had on human life, community and meaning.

She has been published in The Journal of Camus Studies (2023) and How Does the Digitization of Our World Change Our Orientation? (Orientations Press: 2023), and she has forthcoming articles in The Christian Scholar카지노 게임 컬렉션™s Review and in the edited anthology Food, Technology and Society (Routledge: 2027) . She also works as a Graduate Student Advisor for the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s Society of Graduate & Professional Students.
