About

Christine Sypnowich found her path to political philosophy when she encountered the work of C.B. Macpherson at the 카지노게임사이트 of Toronto, where she completed her first two degrees before taking up a Commonwealth Scholarship to do a doctorate at Balliol College, Oxford. Sypnowich has held teaching appointments at Oxford 카지노게임사이트, Leeds 카지노게임사이트, Leiden 카지노게임사이트, 카지노게임사이트 of California (San Diego), and York 카지노게임사이트, before coming to Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s. She has been awarded visiting fellowships at the Australian National 카지노게임사이트, Corpus Christi College, Oxford, and All Souls College, Oxford. She is also a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada. 

Christine Sypnowich카지노 게임 컬렉션s early work was in the philosophy of law, particularly the possibility of socialist legality given the Marxist antipathy to law. This was the subject of her first monograph published with OUP, a revised version of her Oxford dissertation. More recently her research has centred on egalitarianism, making the case for a human flourishing approach to equality in Equality Renewed: Justice, Human Flourishing and the Egalitarian Ideal (Routledge 2018). She has published over 60 essays as journal articles or book chapters. Her work has been translated into Chinese, Russian and Spanish and abridged versions published in accessible formats such as textbooks and popular philosophy. She is currently completing a book on the philosophy of G.A. Cohen for Polity Press. Active in the city of Kingston as an advocate for transparency at City Hall as well as heritage conservation, Sypnowich is also working on a monograph on the political philosophy of cultural heritage.
