Candace Vogler
Candace A. Vogler is an Associate Professor of Philosophy and Co-Director of the Master of Arts Program in the Humanities at the University of Chicago.
Professor Vogler received her Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh. Her specific fields of interest are ethics, feminism, action theory, as well as sexuality and gender studies. She has a particular emphasis on the works of Karl Marx, Thomas Aquinas, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, and Elizabeth Anscombe.
