My research explores the formation, disruption, and renewal of moral subjectivity, with particular attention to testimony as a mode of ethical reflection.
French Reflective Philosophy
I study the movement from reflection to ethics in the French reflective tradition, especially Jean Nabert’s account of originary affirmation, evil, the unjustifiable, and responsibility, together with Paul Ricœur’s development of attestation, recognition, and testimony.
Testimony, Interpretation, and Recognition
This project investigates testimony beyond its conventional epistemological function. It asks how testimony makes moral experience intelligible, how listeners respond to another person’s account, and how failures of belief, interpretation, or recognition can produce further harm.
Moral Injury
I examine moral injury as a disruption of the subject’s relation to self, others, and a shared moral world. My work considers the testimonial structure of moral injury and the role of narration, listening, and recognition in moral repair.
Artificial Intelligence Ethics
My research in artificial intelligence ethics concerns the limits of delegating moral judgment to artificial systems, including questions of moral expertise, responsibility, interpretation, and human agency.
