On the circumstances of justice
An epistemic account of the circumstances of justice allows one to make three important claims about the Humean and Rawlsian ‘standard account’ of those circumstances. First, and contrary to Hume, the possibility and necessity of justice are rooted not in limited beneficence or confined generosity, but in the epistemic insight that the knowledge relevant to deciding what to do with the fruits of social cooperation is for a variety of reasons unce…
More open borders for those left behind
Including the interests of those migrants leave behind in debates about migration and justice is a strategy which theorists who are sceptical of open borders have made use of, most notably in brain drain critiques of emigration. In rejecting this view, and in invoking an epistemic conception of liberalism, I claim that not only can the interests of those left behind be appealed to by defenders of more open borders. For at least two reasons such i…
More open borders and deep structural transformation’
Building upon recent work on epistemic varieties of liberalism, avant-garde political agency and the theory and practice of activism, I claim that a liberal defence of more open borders does not presuppose either indifference to the problem of the deep structural sources of poverty in poorer countries, or the absence of an account of those structures’ transformation. Rather, it is claimed that in addition to the remittance of money and other econ…
Epistemic Liberalism
In the wake of what has come to be called the 'cultural turn', it is often asked how the state should respond to the different and sometimes conflicting justice claims made by its citizens and what, ultimately, is the purpose of justice in culturally diverse societies. Building upon the work of a diversity of theorists, this book demonstrates that there is a distinct 'epistemic' tradition of liberalism that can be used to critique contemporary re…

Homosexuality and Publicness
This article examines the relationship between homosexuality and the concept of publicness, including the idea of the political. Building upon the liberal feminism of Susan Okin, as well as upon recent work in queer theory, this article outlines an account of the ethic of unacknowledgeability, understood as the socially constituted physical disappearance of, and discursive silence about, homosexuality. It will be claimed that the ethic of unackno…
Hayek and social justice
Hayek dismisses social justice on the grounds of its atavism, meaninglessness, unfeasibility and incompatibility with a liberal market society. Despite this, he concedes a role for the state in directly providing an economic minimum for those unable to provide one for themselves. This leaves his position in a profound self‐contradiction. On the one hand social justice is dismissed as an unworkable, atavistic ‘mirage’ whilst on the other a minimum…
Exclusion for Democracy
Recent consideration of the politics of culture and identity has failed to capture an emergent trend in political practice that raises important philosophical questions for normative political theory. To rectify this, identity politics is examined in terms of two distinctions. Examining that politics in terms of the distinction between left and right, as well in terms of the distinction between normative discourse and the policies that discourse …
Does Inclusion Require Democracy
Iris Marion Young's theory of democracy aims to accommodate the idea of difference by combining anti-essentialist, identity conferring social groups and mediated socio-economic relations. In this way they are supposed to combine instrumental rationality with inclusiveness and the recognition of difference. Using the political thought of F.A. Hayek, this paper mounts a critique of Young's difference theory. In particular it argues that Young's the…
What is the Politics of Difference

Young, en reponse aux recentes critiques liberales de son oeuvre consacree a la politique de la difference. Dans l'article suivant, I.M. Young rejette la theorie politique que lui attribue l'A. en termes de principes de justice
