LLM Thesis
Bergeron, Abigail. Queen's University. “The Reality-Status Crisis: An Ontological Approach to Interpreting Speech and Behaviour in the Online Environment.” LLM thesis, Queen's University, 2024.
In this project I consider two questions; the first as to how we can interpret the reality-status of virtual and online environments, objects, speech and behaviour, and the second as to how this interpretation of reality-status tracks legal, moral and cultural approaches to regulating the online environment and online speech and behaviour.

Bergeron, Abigail. Queen's University. “Against the ‘Final Solution’ of the Driverless Car and the Case for Driving as a Focal Practice.” MA thesis, Queen's University, 2023.
In this project I consider the case of the nascent driverless car, and drawing on the works of Martin Heidegger, Jacques Ellul and Albert Borgmann, argue that its advent will undermine human autonomy and displace the focal practice of human driving.
