At the heart of my research lies the question, ‘who gets to make which kinds of decisions for whom?’ Pursuit of this question has led me to investigations about the nature of power, autonomy, authenticity, social justice, public dialogue, and the functioning of political institutions. My work is centered around issues at the intersection of feminist theory, political thought, and moral theory. I am particularly interested in issues related to health, identity, and agency. I am currently working on authenticity and normative authority in 'agency dilemma' cases, on the role of mothers in achieving the aims of health promotion, and the impact of 'behavioural policies' on diverse societies. I have an ongoing interest in the nature of compassion and its possibilities for moral thought.
