Peiying Yang

Graduate Student

My current research interests broadly concern issues of alterity and recognition in contemporary multiculturalism and global justice, and I aspire to conduct my inquiry from a pluralist and interdisciplinary perspective. I was an Undergraduate Humanities Honors Fellow at the Fox Center for Humanistic Inquiry and was awarded the Paul Kuntz Prize by Emory’s philosophy department in 2023. I also participated in Philosophy in an Inclusive Key Summer Institute (PIKSI) and received the Iris Marion Young Diversity Scholar Award from Penn State’s Rock Ethics Institute in 2022.
