Moral and Political Philosophy

Dr. Bart Engelen
I am an Associate Professor in Moral and Political Philosophy at the Department of Philosophy (DFI) at Tilburg University (The Netherlands). I work on both conceptual and normative issues related to nudging, manipulation, inequality and justice.

"Perhaps it's ridiculous to take ourselves so seriously.
On the other hand, if we can't help taking ourselves so seriously, perhaps we just have to put up with being ridiculous.
Life may be not only meaningless but absurd."
Thomas Nagel (1987), What Does It All Mean?
