Jamin Asay

 
 

I am Assistant Professor of Philosophy at Lingnan University in Hong Kong. My philosophical interests center around metaphysics, philosophy of language, and philosophy of science. My other main interests include epistemology, metaethics, philosophy of logic, and the history of modern philosophy.


My research revolves around the notion of truth. Cambridge University Press will be releasing my monograph The Primitivist Theory of Truth under its Cambridge Studies in Philosophy series in 2013. My dissertation developed a new approach to truthmaking that can be applied to the debates over the nature of truth and the nature of realism. I have also published on the topics of deflationary truth, moral realism, scientific realism, and theories of ontological commitment.
