Research Interests
My primary areas of interest are in philosophy of music, philosophy of art, political philosophy, ethics, and 18th and 19th century German philosophy.
Within the philosophy of art I am particularly interested in the cross-cultural application of western theories to Iran. Within social and political philosophy I am primarily interested in globalization and global justice, with emphasis on the Middle East. From a historical perspective, I am interested in 18th and 19th century German thought on aesthetics, ethics, and idealism.
I am currently conducting long term research into considerations for the philosophy of music, and its intersection with political and ethical themes, when applied across different cultural paradigms, particularly in relation to Persian art music. My current historically-directed research (stemming from my consortium study at the University of Pennsylvania) focuses on responses to Kant's ethical theory in 19th century British idealism.
