About

I am a professor of philosophy at the University of Bergen and the coordinator of the Bergen Logic Group.

Most of my research to date has focused on issues concerning disagreement. What does it take for us to disagree? What kinds of disagreement are there? What is the significance of these distinctions? However, I have broad interests spanning epistemology, logic, metaethics, metaphysics, philosophy of language, philosophy of logic, philosophy of mind, philosophy of science, and political philosophy.
