DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>2nd Dortmund Disputes on Economic Justice</strong></p>\n<p>Date: June 25 and 26\, 2026.</p>\n<p>Place: Dortmund\, Germany</p>\n<p>Keynotes: Chiara Cordelli (University of Chicago)\, Bas van der Vossen (Chapman University)</p>\n<p>The annual &lsquo\;Dortmund Disputes on Economic Justice&rsquo\; serve as a forum for discussing questions of economic justice\, including the role of markets\, the nature of property\, the justifiability of taxes\, the importance of workplace democracy\, the problem of economic inequality\, and\, more generally\, the merits of capitalism and socialism. While debates on economic justice often occur within specific political camps\, the Dortmund Disputes aim to foster discussion across political boundaries by bringing together scholars with diverse outlooks&mdash\;liberal egalitarian\, libertarian\, socialist\, conservative\, or otherwise&mdash\;who share the goal of advancing our understanding of economic justice.</p>\n<p>Following the successful <a href="https://ipp.ht.tu-dortmund.de/nachrichtendetail/12-13062025-dortmund-philosophical-disputes-on-economic-justice-46545/">first installment in 2025</a>\, which featured Miranda Fleischer and Nicholas Vrousalis\, the second installment will take place on June 25&ndash\;26\, 2026. The keynote speakers are Chiara Cordelli and Bas van der Vossen. Chiara Cordelli\, Professor of Political Science at the University of Chicago\, works on social and political philosophy\, especially political economy and democratic theory. She is the author of <em>The Privatized State</em> (2020)\, a Kantian critique of privatization that develops a democratic theory of public administration. Bas van der Vossen\, Professor in the Smith Institute for Political Economy and Philosophy and the Philosophy Department at Chapman University\, works on political philosophy\, with a focus on political economy\, global justice\, and property rights. His books include <em>In Defense of Openness</em> (2018) and <em>Debating Humanitarian Intervention</em> (2017).</p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>CONFERENCE PROGRAM</strong></p>\n<p><strong>June 24\, 2026 (Wednesday)</strong></p>\n<p>19.00: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Welcome Dinner <em>(restaurant tba)</em></p>\n<p><strong><br></strong></p>\n<p><strong>June 25\, 2026 (Thursday)</strong></p>\n<p>09.30 &ndash\; 10.00: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Welcome/Registration</p>\n<p>10.00 &ndash\; 11.15: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; <strong>Pascal Brixel</strong> (Northwestern): Freedom\, Power\, and Private Property in the Means of Production</p>\n<p>11.15 &ndash\; 11.30: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Coffee break</p>\n<p>11.30 &ndash\; 12.45: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; <strong>Garance Coggins</strong>(University of Southern Denmark): Do cosmopolitans have reason to embrace limitarianism as a partial principle of distributive justice?</p>\n<p>12.45 &ndash\; 13:45: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; Lunch</p>\n<p>13.45 &ndash\; 15.00: &nbsp\;&nbsp\;&nbsp\; <strong>Thomas R.
