Philosophy

Willow Mindich (she/her) specializes in critical hermeneutics, social epistemology (especially feminist epistemology) and political ontology. Her current research establishes that because there is a causal relationship between interpretation and action, there is always already more at stake in misinterpretation than mere misunderstanding. Even more specifically, Willow's work shows that stereotypes not only lead us to misunderstand other people, but also misbehave toward other persons because we have misunderstood them. While an undergraduate at 华体会, Willow co-founded with several of her peers.
