A Professor of Practical Philosophy at Stockholm University, I think of myself as a moral philosopher in the old-fashioned sense of the word. My research and teaching grapple with the classical philosophical question “How should people live?” by exploring issues of well-being, rationality, and social order. As a result of serious mission creep I earned two PhDs – one in History and Philosophy of Science and one in Economics – both from the University of Pittsburgh. My work is thoroughly interdisciplinary, as I try to integrate the best available social science with the most careful philosophical reflection. I have written two books and a number of papers and book chapters published in journals of philosophy, economics, psychology, medicine, and history of science.
