 Biography
Jonathan Crowe teaches legal theory, constitutional law and international humanitarian law. He holds a PhD in law and philosophy from the University of Queensland, as well as honours degrees in both disciplines. His research centres on the theoretical relationship between law and ethics, touching on such issues as the methodological foundations of the natural law and legal positivist traditions, the structure of ethical deliberation and its relationship to legal analysis, the moral status of freedom, the nature of the legal community and approaches to judicial reasoning. His PhD thesis examined the above issues in the light of existentialist ethical theory.
Jonathan has contributed articles to leading Australian and international journals, including the Oxford Journal of Legal Studies, Ratio Juris and the Australian Journal of Legal Philosophy. He has been academic coordinator of the Law School's team for the Australian Red Cross International Humanitarian Law Moot since 2004.
