Papers which she has published on these topics include ‘Evil as an Explanatory Concept’, The Monist 2002; ‘In Defence of Unconditional Forgiveness’ (jointly with David McNaughton), Proceedings of the Aristotelian Society 2003; ‘Conditional Unconditional Forgiveness’ (jointly with David McNaughton) in The Ethics of Forgiveness ed.
