Notă biografică
David Schmidtz is Kendrick Professor of Philosophy (College of Social & Behavioral Sciences), Eller Chair of Service-Dominant Logic (College of Management), founding Director of the Center for Philosophy of Freedom, founder of the Department of Political Economy and Moral Sciences, and editor in chief of Social Philosophy & Policy, at the University of Arizona. In political philosophy, Arizona is ranked as the world's #1 graduate program by the Philosophical Gourmet. Dave's sixteen former doctoral students all hold faculty positions and have published articles in Journal of Philosophy and Ethics. Oxford, Cambridge, and Princeton University Presses have published their books.
He has taught at Yale, Florida State College of Law, and Hamburg University. He has been a Research Fellow at various institutions, including the Maurice Young Centre for Applied Ethics at UBC, McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University, UNC-Chapel Hill, and Kings' College London. He was a Phi Beta Kappa National Scholar in 2015.
David has published many books and articles. Many scholars claim to have written a hundred articles in their careers, but David's essays have been reprinted 91 times in anthologies, textbooks, and translations (13 languages in all). Most essays are never even cited; it is rare for one to be reprinted.
