Justice is often defended as fair. That claim does a lot of work, most of it before anyone realises it’s working at all.

This essay looks at fairness and commensurability not as moral virtues, but as preconditions quietly installed so that retributive justice can function at all.

#introduction 🧵 5/6

👨‍🏫 I’ve been #teaching #PoliticalTheory at the University of #Bamberg for a good 3 years now (phew!), having joined the team of @PolTheo after returning from a Master’s at #LSE. David Axelsen and Kai Möller got me hooked on analytic #PoliticalPhilosophy and #PhilosophyOfLaw over there. Still interested in issues at the crossroads of individual #ethics and theories of #justice.

This term, I’m teaching a graduate seminar on #CollectiveResponsibility.
