Presented at the IPSA, with a new project where I step into the territory of corrective justice and reparations from the social contract project (CO3) perspective. Still very much exploratory, but it generates good discussions!

Comme ça touche à pas mal de choses sur lesquelles je travaille, j’ai furieusement envie de faire quelques commentaires à la volée… 🧵 Après ça, un peu de vacances.

ICYMI a superb review essay by Ed Glaeser of Al Roth's popular book.
