Eli Benjamin Israel

PhD Student
I am a doctoral student in the Department of Philosophy at Temple University and co-founder of the Philosophy 360° project.
My research focuses on the intersection of contemporary moral philosophy (moral psychology and applied ethics) and the history of moral philosophy, in particular Kant.
I am currently working on autonomy and consent in light of unusual cases of "sincere" rape fantasies, where one desires the violation of her own will.
