Trained as a political philosopher, he aims to help foster pragmatic normative vision in the field and practice of world politics (Cosmopolitanism and International Relations Theory (Polity, 2011)). His recent publications rehearse a public philosophy of political responsibility and leadership that responds to global challenges from within a national/global problematic in order to counter regressive nationalism and global elitism. He is presently co-editing The State and Cosmopolitan Responsibility (Oxford UP, 2018) and preparing a monograph, Political Responsibility in a Globalized, Fragmented World for Oxford UP.
