Assistant Professor at Jagiellonian University, Faculty of Law and Administration - Jagiellonian Center for Law, Language and Philosophy

Is a university professor in the Department of Legal Theory at Jagiellonian University and a member of Jagiellonian Center for Law, Language and Philosophy. In recent years he has worked on the philosophy of “holistic pragmatism” developed by M.G. White (1917-2016) and on the contemporary reinterpretations of American legal realism. In 2020, as a Fulbright scholar, he visited University of California-Irvine to work on the project entitled “Ethics of Institutional Beliefs”; later he received funding from National Science center of Poland for further research in this topic. The latter (ongoing) project combines epistemological and ethical inquiries over the status of “institutional beliefs”– namely beliefs (or attitudes, intentions, etc.) regarding the existence and functioning of social and legal institutions. The main research question is under what conditions one might say that institutional beliefs are responsible beliefs.
