Details
We invite submissions on questions at the intersection of finance and social justice, conceived broadly. Sample questions include, but are not limited to:
- What is the social purpose of finance?
- Do citizens have moral claims to have access to certain financial services?
- What does it mean to say that financial markets exercise power over people and even states, and would that be a bad thing?
- What are the positive and negative impacts of finance on social justice?
- What is systemic financial risk, and how should we deal with it from a perspective of justice?
- What are the normative implications of international financial integration?
We encourage applications from philosophy, economics and economic history, law, political science, sociology, and related fields who have an interest in integrating empirical and normative research on finance.
