Fellows Academic Program

The Edmond J. Safra Center for Ethics cohort of fellows represents a diverse group of young scholars of philosophy, law, government, sociology and anthropology, coming from top institutions in the US (Harvard, Chicago, UCLA), Europe (Science Po, UCL, EUI) and Israel (Hebrew, TAU). Their prior work is highly impressive. The research programs they pursue at the Center cover exciting topics such as: Should citizenship be fo sale? What are the constitutional dimensions of Airbnb? What are the normative implications of the transition from a political economy of private property to one of risk? How does Israel’s welfare state face the challenges of universal social insurance? How has marketization and migration triggered “temporary marriages” and transformed notions and practices of love and marriage in China?

Alongside their research, the fellows participate in a set of advanced research seminars and in a weekly colloquium to discuss foundational texts and present their personal projects.
