Samuel Hughes is a Research Fellow at the University of Oxford and Head of Research at the Office for Place within the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities.
His education was primarily at Oxford and Cambridge Universities. At the former he took an MA in Philosophy Politics and Economics (2013) and a B.Phil. in Philosophy (2015); at the latter he completed his PhD in Philosophy (2020). He is interested in architecture and urbanism, both on a philosophical level and at the level of policy. He is now beginning a book on philosophical approaches to artistic modernism, a subject on which immense quantities have been written, but which has almost never been systematically investigated using the tools of analytical philosophy.

CONTRIBUTE

A note from Lev:

I am a high school teacher of history and economics at a public high school in NYC, and began the podcast to help demystify economics for teachers.  The podcast is now within the top 2% of podcasts worldwide in terms of listeners (per Listen Notes) and individual episodes are frequently listed by The Syllabus (the-syllabus.com) as among the 10 best political economy podcasts of a particular week.  The podcast is reaching thousands of listeners each month. 

The podcast seeks to provide a substantive alternative to mainstream economics media; to communicate information and ideas that contribute to equitable and peaceful solutions to political and economic issues; and to improve the teaching of high school and university political economy.

Best,

Lev
