text: The 2015 MSc Thesis Prize jury—consisting of Theresa Reinold, Francesco Ragazzi, and Arjen Boin—is impressed with Leupen’s work, which they classify as a ‘well-researched confrontation with an extensive literature’, deserving praise for its ‘precision of argument’.
  Leupen’s critique of ‘asymmetric Kantianism’ also has its methodological merits. According to the jury, ‘the thesis is fully conversant, indeed fluent, in the analytic approach to philosophy: it takes up an argument, charitably reconstructs its presuppositions and then defends or attacks it premiss by premiss.’
  Furthermore, the jury compliments the author on his writing: ‘very high quality‘, ‘with brio and passion’. Leupen, in short, has demonstrated remarkable academic maturity. Reinold, Ragazzi, and Boin: ‘Overall, Leupen’s thesis manifests a level of erudition and understanding well beyond what is normally expected of a Master's student with only one year of graduate experience.’
