Jahel Queralt

I am a Serra Hunter Lecturer in the Department of Law at Pompeu Fabra University (2017-).Previously I was a SNF fellow at the Center for Ethics of the University of Zurich, and a post-doctoral fellow at the Centre for Advanced Studies Justitia Amplificata at Goethe University in Frankfurt.

I have a law degree and a Ph.D. in Political Science from Pompeu Fabra University (Political Theory track). During my studies I was a visiting student at the Uehiro Centre for Practical Ethics and at the Department of Political Sciences and International Relations of the University of Oxford.

An important part of my past research has focused on liberal egalitarianism and how individual responsibility can be integrated in a conception of distributive equality. More recently, I worked on topics within human rights theory, particularly, on the status of economic liberties as human rights and their potential to alleviate poverty. At present, I led with Iñigo Gonzalez Ricoy the research project: "Justice at Work: A Normative Analysis of Nonstandard Forms of Employment" funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and the European Regional Development Fund /PGC2018-095917-A-100).
