I am a Professor at Yale-NUS College. In that capacity, I read, write, and teach classes in the humanities and social sciences. I’m delighted to call Singapore my adopted home.

Prof Bailey’s research is mostly about money, people, and God. His work with the Resistance Money research collective aims to understand and evaluate bitcoin in a way that integrates philosophy, politics, and economics. Early articles in philosophy defend the view that we are living human animals (as opposed to, say, brains or luminous spiritual beings). More recent metaphysical work, culminating in a short monograph, concerns our value as people and links between human nature and conceptions of the divine.
