Kadish Workshop in Law, Philosophy, and Political Theory: Peter Koellner, Harvard University

Friday, August 30, 2024 @ 12:00 pm - 2:00 pm

Peter Koellner is Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University. He joined the department in 2003 after receiving his Ph.D. from MIT. His main areas of research are mathematical logic ­— primarily set theory —­ and the philosophy of mathematics. He is interested in foundational questions of all kinds, and is particularly drawn toward those on which mathematical results might be brought to bear.

Paper Title:

Disagreement in Mathematics: From the Small Infinite to the Higher Finite

About the Workshop:

A workshop for presenting and discussing work in progress in moral, political, and legal theory. The central aim is to provide an opportunity for students to engage with philosophers, political theorists, and legal scholars working on normative questions. Another aim is to bring together people from different disciplines who have strong normative interests or who speak to issues of potential interest to philosophers and political theorists.  

The theme for the Fall 2024 workshop is “Disagreement.”

This semester the workshop is co-taught by Josh Cohen and Véronique Munoz-Dardé.
