Henry Krahn is a Post-Doctoral Global Fellow affiliated with the Center for Law and Philosophy. His research focuses on moral and political philosophy, particularly on what protest movements can tell us about the intersection of the two.
Henry completed his PhD in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Toronto, where he held an Ontario Graduate Scholarship and Doctoral Fellowship at the University of Toronto Centre for Ethics. His doctoral project developed a new theory of political protest as a form of holding others accountable, offering a robust account of the nature and justification of accountability-seeking protest.
At NYU, Henry is working on a research project tentatively titled “Reimagining Reasons: Protest and Deep Moral Change.” This project examines the connection between protest and moral change, evaluating the radical claim that the fundamental principles of morality might themselves be alterable and considering the implications of this claim for the movements that seek to alter them.
