Brief Biography

Elizabeth Goodyear-Grant (Ph.D. McGill) is a Professor in the Department of Political Studies at Queen鈥檚 University, and the Director of the Canadian Opinion Research Archive (CORA). Her research focuses on Canadian politics, with particular interests in electoral politics, voting behaviour, and public opinion; news media; the political representation of women; and the conceptualization and measurement of sex and gender. She is the author of  (Vancouver: UBC Press, 2013), which won the 2016 Pierre Savard Award from the International Council of Canadian Studies, and was one of three books shortlisted for the Canadian Political Science Association鈥檚 2014 Donald Smiley Prize. 

In , Goodyear-Grant presents compelling evidence that gender structures certain aspects of news coverage of candidates and politicians 鈥 not how much they鈥檙e covered, but certainly how they鈥檙e covered 鈥 and demonstrates that these differences can impact negatively on female candidates and leaders鈥 electoral prospects and political careers, contributing to the persistent under-representation of women at all levels of politics. Goodyear-Grant has also published work on measuring sex and gender in political research, attitudes toward democracy and political representation, attitudes toward the use of referenda, and so on, all part of a larger research agenda that concentrates on representation and political behaviour published in venues such as Political Behavior, Politics & Gender, Electoral Studies, Commonwealth & Comparative Politics, and the Canadian Journal of Political Science.

In the Department of Political Studies at Queen鈥檚, Goodyear-Grant teaches courses on campaigns and elections; women, gender, and politics; and Canadian politics more generally.

Colin Farrelly Curriculum Vitae

Colin is a political theorist and philosopher. 

Research Interests

The foundational aspiration of Colin鈥檚 research is the advancement of the Enlightenment Project into the 21st century.  The themes of reason, science, progress, and optimism inform his curiosity-driven research interests and interdisciplinary focus.

Main research interests are: Ethics and political theory/philosophy, including distributive justice; ideal/non-ideal theory; history of political thought, deliberative democracy; all things virtue-related: virtue ethics, virtue epistemology, and virtue jurisprudence; Analytical Marxism; play; science and justice - especially the biomedical sciences (e.g. genetics, evolutionary biology, 鈥済eroscience鈥 and the ethics of human enhancement).

Colin Farrelly is interested in supervising students interested in research projects at the intersection of political theory and advances in the biomedical sciences and/or public health ethics and policy. 

Brief Biography

Colin received his Ph.D. from the University of Bristol in England in 1999.  Over his 20-year academic career, he has held academic appointments in 10 different departments in Political Science, Philosophy, and Public Policy in England, Scotland, the United States, and Canada. Previous appointments include Visiting Professor in UCLA鈥檚 Luskin School of Public Affairs, Fulbright Visiting Research Chair at the University of Manoa in Hawaii, Research Fellow in the Department of Politics and International Relations at Oxford University, Visitor in Oxford鈥檚 Program on Ethics and the New Biosciences, as well as permanent academic appointments at Waterloo University, Manchester University and the University of Birmingham.  For the past 5 years, Colin has been involved in teaching philosophy to male inmates. 

The author and editor of 6 books and approximately 50 journal articles, Colin鈥檚 publications include articles in journals in political science, philosophy, feminism, law, science, and medicine. He has published on a diverse array of topics, including the health challenges posed by population aging, the creation and evolution of patriarchy, virtue ethics, virtue epistemology, virtue jurisprudence, play and politics, freedom of expression, judicial review, non-ideal theory, gene patents, deliberative democracy, nanotechnology, sex selection, toleration, a citizen鈥檚 basic income, enhancing soldiers and economic incentives.  

Colin is currently working on the following three major research projects: 

  1. a new textbook titled Classics in Political Philosophy for Today (under contract with Hackett Publishing) which covers a range of political thinkers from Plato through to MLK, Jr. The book encourages students to engage with, and critically reflect upon, the contemporary significance of the history of Western political thought.     
  2. research for a new manuscript on the social significance of 鈥済eroscience鈥- the science of healthy aging.  This multi-year project examines the limitations of public health鈥檚 鈥淲ar Against Disease鈥- covering not only the war against infectious diseases (such as COVID-19), but also the wars against cancer and obesity.  It also canvasses the progression of a century of experimental scientific research on modulating aging, from dietary restriction and genetic manipulation in laboratory organisms, to pharmacological interventions in humans.  
  3. developing an account of a 鈥渞ealistic utopia鈥 that focuses on the developmental potential of play- physical, social, and imaginative play.  This project relies on insights from evolutionary biology and positive psychology, as well as philosophy and the history of political thought.

Mackintosh-Corry Hall, C428

Research Interests

American institutions and separation of powers, public law, judicial politics, legal mobilization, constitutional law (including civil rights and liberties), race and law, and legal institutions

I would be interested in supervising graduate students in the area of law and courts, especially judicial behavior and legal mobilization in the U.S. and Canadian contexts. I may also supervise students working on American institutions, broadly construed.

Biography

I am an Assistant Professor of Political Studies at Queen鈥檚 University in Kingston, Ontario. I was formerly a Visiting Researcher at the Centre for Law in the Contemporary Workplace at the 成人大片 Faculty of Law and a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Political Science in the Maxwell School at Syracuse University. I received my Ph.D. from the Department of Politics at Princeton University.

My research and teaching interests are broadly in American law and politics. My work sits at the intersection of a number of sub-disciplines of political science, including American institutions, judicial politics, American political development, law and society, and political behavior. My primary research agenda aims to understand the effectiveness of 鈥減rivate enforcement statutes,鈥 federal laws in which the primary mechanism of enforcement is private litigation, rather than direct bureaucratic action. I argue that a number of actors鈥攑residents, bureaucratic agencies, judges, and interest groups鈥攁ll have a hand in determining whether individuals will make use of private rights of action by filing lawsuits.

In other research, I examine how the public and governmental actors respond to Supreme Court decisions, as well as public preferences about judicial institutions and legal outcomes.
