The collapse of liberal democracy is often misunderstood. Regina Queiroz argues that a libertarian-conservative model has displaced liberal democracy's endorsement of popular sovereignty.

Regina also collaborates with Intrepid LAB at Universidade Lusófona and the Institute of Philosophy at NOVA University Lisbon (NOVA FCSH).
Her research focuses on liberalism, libertarian-conservatism, and theories of social justice — specifically Rawlsian justice as fairness — as well as business ethics, namely the application of Aristotle’s concept of phronesis to the field.
