David Leslie Miller is an English political theorist. He is a Professor of Political Theory at the University of Oxford and an Official Fellow of Nuffield College.
David Miller received his initial training in philosophy at Selwyn College, Cambridge, and in politics at Balliol College, Oxford. After teaching at the Universities of Lancaster and East Anglia, he assumed an Official Fellowship at Nuffield College in 1979.
Miller is affiliated with the University’s Department of Politics and International Relations, as well as the Faculty of Philosophy. Between 2012 and 2014, he served on partial secondment to the Blavatnik School of Government, where he coordinated the Foundations component of the Master of Public Policy course.
A distinctive feature of David's work is the reliance on social science data to shape discussions in political philosophy. His enduring interest lies in the concept of justice, initially centered on social justice but now encompassing global justice.
He has authored three books in this domain: Social Justice (1976), Principles of Social Justice (1999), and most recently, a collection of essays, Justice for Earthlings (2013).
In the 1980s, David explored the idea of market socialism and defended this system in his book, Market, State, and Community (1989). This exploration led him to raise questions about the type of political community within which social justice policies could be pursued, leading to a sustained engagement with ideas of nationality and citizenship.
His works in this area include On Nationality (1995) and Citizenship and National Identity (2000).
In the 2000s, he blended research on national issues with a global perspective, culminating in the publication of National Responsibility and Global Justice (2007).
More recently, he has focused on issues related to immigration, publishing Strangers in Our Midst: The Political Philosophy of Immigration in 2016 and collaborating with Christine Straehle on The Political Philosophy of Refuge in 2020.
David has also continued to write about national identity, territory, and self-determination.
