Adam Gjesdal - Justice, Diversity and Liberty
About this episode
The episode features a discussion with political philosopher Adam Gjesdal on key issues in political philosophy, including justice, diversity, and the relevance of Mill's work on liberty.
In this episode of the Hostcast, I sit down with political philosopher Adam Gjesdal to explore some of the biggest questions in political philosophy: from how we correct for our own biases, to why diversity of perspectives leads to better outcomes, to what John Stuart Mill's On Liberty can teach us about free speech and individual freedom today. We also get into Adam's own academic journey, his research on justice pluralism, and, of course, his upcoming salon series on Mill's "On Liberty". A conversation full of ideas that are as relevant now as they've ever been.
