Katharine Jenkins is a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, specializing in social philosophy, particularly the ontology of social categories. She holds a PhD from the University of Sheffield and degrees from the University of Cambridge. Her work examines how social categories like race and gender intersect with systemic injustice, focusing on feminist philosophy and critical race theory. She has authored Ontology and Oppression: Race, Gender, and Social Reality (Oxford UP, 2020), which critiques oppressive social constructions and advocates for emancipatory frameworks. Her research also addresses rape myths, pornography ethics, and disability theory.
Publications span topics such as gender identity, racial categories, and epistemic injustices. She co-founded the Consent Coalition in Nottinghamshire to combat rape myths and promote sexual consent education. Jenkins actively engages with public policy, advising organizations on gender equality and trans rights. Her interdisciplinary approach bridges academic philosophy with real-world social justice initiatives.
