Current Research

Two books in process:

Domestic:
Modern Liberalism and the Mixing of Church and State

A project that examines the implications of egalitarian justice for the liberal theory of church-state relations. I argue that an affirmation of egalitarianism requires that one also affirm a substantial mixing of church and state.

Recent work on this project:

"Egalitarian Liberalism and the Mixing of Church and State"

"Should Political Liberals be Compassionate Conservatives?:
Philosophical Foundations of the Faith-Based Initiative"
Social Philosophy & Policy 21/1 ( forthcoming January 2004).

"Civic Education and Ethical Subservience:
From Mozert to Santa Fe and Beyond"
NOMOS XLIII: Moral and Political Education,
Special issue: ed. by Stephen Macedo and Yael Tamir,
New York: New York University Press, 2002.

International:
Join or Die?: Lessons from Early America for the Future of the World

Recent work on this project:

"Classical Liberals on Global Governance" (working manuscript)

"Sovereignty, Commerce and Cosmopolitanism:
Lessons from Early America for the Future of the World"
