Manish Oza

I'm an Assistant Professor at the University of Western Ontario, Faculty of Law, cross-appointed to the Department of Philosophy. I work mainly in philosophy of law and philosophy of logic.

My current project is about the authority of nonstate groups, such as clubs, churches, unions and social and political organizations, and how it intersects with the authority of the state. Beyond this project, I'm interested in collective forms of ownership, legal pluralism and legal reasoning.

My work in philosophy of logic is about the idea that thinking has to be logical to some degree to be thinking at all. I've argued that logic makes it possible for us to question and revise our commitments, and connected this idea to problems about logical pluralism, normativity and the limits of thought.
