U.T.R. (Titus) Stahl, Dr

If you are interested in doing a philosophy or PPE MA in Groningen and want to chat, please feel free to get in touch!

If you are a (prospective) PhD student who is interested in my areas of research, please get in touch with me. Unfortunately, there is very little institutional funding available at this moment, but if you already have a PhD position or scholarship, it is sometimes possible to do a joint supervision arrangement with another university ("co-tutelle") or arrange a research visit. Do not hesitate to ask!

• Since 2014, I teach at the Faculty of Philosophy at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen; as of 2023, I hold the position of Associate Professor.
• I am a member of the editorial boards at the following journals: Critical Horizons, Zeitschrift für philosophische Literatur.
• From 2010 to 2014, I held a position as "Wissenschaftlicher Assistent" at Goethe University (a non-tenured teaching and research position) at the Chair of Social Philosophy, working with Axel Honneth.
• From 2000 to 2005, I studied philosophy, political science, sociology and computer science in Tübingen and Frankfurt. I received my PhD in 2010 from the Goethe University in Frankfurt and Macquarie University in Sydney as a joint PhD. My PhD thesis was about the method of immanent critique in critical theory and I developed an argument based on recent theories in analytic social ontology to the effect that critical theories can rely on immanent normative potentials in social practices. A revised version of the thesis has since been published as "Immanente Kritik" in German and as Immanent Critique in English.
