Take it in. The first female chancellor. The first housing secretary who's actually lived in social housing. The first education secretary who was on free school meals. An energy secretary who actually believes in aggressively fighting climate change. Not a bad afternoon.
Superb #SEP2024 session on Simone de Beauvoir with Anna Cornelia Ploug (Copenhagen) on concrete contradictions in The Second Sex and Katja Čičigoj (Klagenfurt) on gendered forms of subjectivation structuring lived experience.
Great talk from Juliana de Albuquerque (University College Cork) on Hannah Arendt's theory of the primacy of experience over theory and the centrality of stories to ethical and political understanding.

Very much looking forward to doing a keynote lecture at this year's @EthicalTheory conference in beautiful Edinburgh.
I'll be talking about integrity -- what it is and how we know.
Registration is still open!
