Dr Kelvin Knight

About

Kim graduated from the University of York in Politics and Sociology with 1st class honours and received an MA with distinction in Political Philosophy, also at York.
She is now on a PhD programme at London Met in the Centre for Contemporary Aristotelian Studies in Ethics and Politics (CASEP).  Her thesis explores what it takes for families to flourish, what characteristics are required of family members and embraces the notion of diverse family forms. She examines the contributions of contemporary moral theory to the study of the family and combines the different insights of liberalism, feminism and care ethics with Aristotelian virtue ethics to outline a view of the family which proposes an examination of the internal and external goods of family life required for flourishing, rather than the usual preoccupation with family form and types. Kim has a full stipendiary Vice-Chancellor Scholarship to carry out this research for three years.
