Fields of research
Anna L. Peters is a PhD candidate in Law at the University of Cambridge, specializing in ethics and criminal law theory. Her doctoral research explores the tensions between the wrongness constraint, which restricts permissible criminalization to morally wrongful conduct, and overinclusive offences - laws that criminalize conduct beyond the targeted wrongdoing.
With a background in Philosophy, Politics, and Economics (PPE) from King’s College London, Anna L. Peters brings a multidisciplinary approach to questions at the intersection of criminal law, moral philosophy, and legal theory. Her work seeks to illuminate the principles underlying the design and justification of criminal offences in modern legal systems.
