Katharina Nieswandt

Assistant Professor of Philosophy, Concordia University

I am an Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Concordia University in Montréal. I received my PhD from the University of Pittsburgh and then did a postdoc at Stanford's Center for Ethics in Society.

My main areas of research are metaethics, normative ethics and political theory. I am particularly interested in the metaphysics of rights (are there any natural rights? or are all rights socially constructed?) and in questions concerning economic justice.
