Author Information

Mihaela Popa-Wyatt is a Lecturer in Philosophy at Manchester University, UK. Her primary research areas are in Philosophy of Language and Linguistics, Meta-ethics, Social and Political Philosophy, Social Epistemology, Philosophy and Race and Gender. Her recent work focuses on how slurs and oppressive speech shift social norms and re-entrench social hierarchies. She combines philosophical analysis with tools from game-theoretic and social norms theories to make testable predictions about e.g. the spread of oppressive speech use, coalitions formation, and the emergence of discriminatory norms. She has an entry on Slurs, Pejoratives, and Hate Speech in Oxford Bibliographies in Philosophy, and has edited a special issue with Philosophical Studies, entitled Go Figure: Understanding Figurative Talk.
