John F. O'Neill is a philosopher. He is professor of political economy at the University of Manchester.^[1] He has published on subjects related to political economy and philosophy, philosophy and environmental policy, political theory, environmental ethics, and the philosophy of science.^[2][3]

John O'Neill held the post of professor of philosophy at Lancaster University.^[1]

Previously, he was on the faculty of the University of Sussex and the University of Wales.^[1]

Reviewing O'Neill's book The Market: Ethics, Knowledge and Politics, Mark Peacock wrote that "O'Neill defends an Aristotelian perfectionism which allows for a plurality of goods pursued for their own sake. [...] The argument is sound, but does not answer the liberal objection to Aristotle that individuals must be allowed to pursue what they believe to be the good."^[4]
