Daniel Statman

I am a professor of philosophy at the University of Haifa, Israel. My main areas of specialization are ethics and political philosophy. Between 2016-2018 I served as chair of the Israeli Philosophical Association.
I am also a senior fellow at the Israel Democracy Institute.
My recent books are War by Agreement: A Contractarian Ethics of War (Oxford University Press, 2019, with Yitzhak Benbaji), and State and Religion in Israel: A Philosophical-Legal Inquiry (Cambridge University Press, 2019, with Gideon Sapir).
I will be on sabbatical in spring 2026, spending Trinity Term at Nuffield College, Oxford.
