About me
M R. X. Dentith is Associate Professor of Philosophy at the International Center for Philosophy at Beijing Normal University at Zhuhai. Their chief research interests concern the epistemic analysis of conspiracy theories, rumours, fake news, and the epistemology of secrecy. In 2014 they wrote the first single author on conspiracy theory in Philosophy, The Philosophy of Conspiracy Theories. This has lead to a fruitful series of publications and special issues on the topic, as well as two edited collections: Taking Conspiracy Theories Seriously in 2018 and The Philosophy of Conspiracy Theories: Concepts, Method and Theory in 2023. They co-host The Podcaster’s Guide to the Conspiracy with Josh Addison in their spare time.
