I'm Eli Benjamin Israel, a philosopher working on ethics, moral psychology, social and feminist philosophy. When in the right mood, I also play with Kant.
My current research focuses on the normativity of trust and consent within interpersonal relationships — you can learn more about my work here. I'm doing my Ph.D. at Temple University and currently I serve as chair of the APA's Graduate Student Council. In addition, I am affiliated with several research projects and networks, including the Center for Positive Sexuality, the Ethical Dating Online Network, and the Liberalism Rekindled Research Project. Before joining Temple, I did my M.A. and B.A. in Philosophy at the Hebrew University. |
