My research focuses on democracy and human rights,
especially in the context of globalization. Current projects
include papers on democratic accountability and supranational
governance
institutions, on the role of a transnational human rights regime in
democratizing global power, and on the contractualist approaches to
global justice. I am also working on a book-length project
on global economic injustice and democratic governance.
