Claremont Law & Business Review
Liam Kelly
Research Interests:
Liam is passionate about the intersection between philosophy, economics, and global conflict. He is particularly interested in the philosophical foundations of justice and morality, and how these concepts influence modern economic and political systems. He believes that these ideas are key to thoroughly understanding the increasingly complex issues of the modern world. His most recent work examines the fragility of Russia’s war economy and how its approach to sanctions, militarization, and international isolation will lead to irreversible economic decline.
