About

Jay Drydyk is Chair of the Department of Philosophy at Carleton University in Ottawa, Canada. He is interested in how human rights, justice, and democracy can be understood from global and cross-cultural perspectives. With Peter Penz, he co-edited Global Justice, Global Democracy, which explores the meaning of 'justice' and 'democracy' in the face of globalization. Working with colleagues in India he has studied ethical risks that arise when development displaces people and their communities. His current project, a book on Global Ethics, explores the capacity of diverse moral outlooks to reach agreement on practical conclusions, including the right to development.
