Reviews

Author Information

Umur Başdaş is an Assistant Professor of Political Theory at Koç University. Trained at Yale University, his work bridges continental philosophy and environmental political theory, with specializations in German Idealism and the Frankfurt School. His research on figures such as Kant, Hegel, and Adorno, published in prominent academic venues, informs his current book on rethinking ecology through the ethical and aesthetic dimensions of nature in Critical Theory. His work is driven by a fascination with the complexity of interactions between art, nature, and politics. Dedicated to making dense theoretical debates accessible, he thrives in the classroom, where collaborative close readings spark philosophical discovery.
