about
Leopold Kowolik

I am currently completing my PhD in social and political thought at York University. 

I’m working on the intersection of ethics and aesthetics in the foundations of liberalism, especially around the idea of sensus communis.

“Leo’s the bees knees, man.”

talk to me

I want to talk to and work with people 
who have open-minded antipathy to
stacked-decks, generational inequity, social injustice, ignorance
– people who recognize that sharing is common sense.
