The Anatomy of Justice

The Anatomy of Justice aims to show by demonstration that, properly understood, the methodology, style, and substance of "mainstream" liberal political philosophy are anything but deferent to an unjust status quo.

Gina Schouten is Professor of Philosophy at Harvard University. She writes on justice and legitimacy, egalitarianism, feminism, and education. Her first book, Liberalism, Neutrality, and the Gendered Division of Labor, considers the legitimacy of political intervention aimed at eroding the gendered division of labor and draws insights about the compatibility of liberal legitimacy with feminist aims. Beyond her major research areas, she has written on diversity problems in philosophy, the ethics and politics of abortion, and non-ideal theory in political philosophy. Before Harvard, she taught at Illinois State University (2013-2016). She received her PhD from University of Wisconsin-Madison (2013) and her BA from Ball State University (2006).
