- Double-weighted statement
- My book should be double-weighed because it is a longer form output (92,391 words) and the research necessary to complete it spanned over 6 years. The book explores the relation between political perfectionism — a conception of politics — and prudential perfectionism and ethical perfectionism — a conception of the good life, and a type of ethical theory. At the time of writing this book, there were very little investigations of the ethical foundations of political perfectionism.
