Candace Terman
Predoctoral Fellow
Candace Terman is a third-year Ph.D. candidate in the Department of Government. Her research focuses on legal and political theory, with a particular emphasis on the natural law tradition. She has been cultivating this research interest since her early days at Hillsdale College and continued to do so in her time as a law student at William & Mary Law School. She is particularly interested in how natural law has influenced Western jurisprudence throughout history and is currently writing a dissertation addressing that subject. Her other writing has focused on Shari‘a law as well as Locke’s and Montesquieu’s theories of religious toleration.
