Richard Baron

Richard Baron

Richard Baron (born 1958) is a philosopher living in London. He was educated at Aylesbury Grammar School and at Selwyn College, Cambridge.

His book [http://www.rbphilo.com/projval.html Projects & Values] (2006) argues for a foundationalist virtue ethic, against the background of a structured approach to the cultural relativity of value-concepts and a conception of the human subject that is inspired by Ludwig Wittgenstein. He has also published articles in "Philosophy Now" (February 2006) and in "Ethical Record" (July 2005 and May 2006).

He is also an adviser on tax policy, formerly for the British Government and currently for the Institute of Directors.
