Paul-Mikhail Catapang Podosky is a Research Fellow at Macquarie University's School of Humanities, affiliated with both the Ethics and Agency Research Centre and the Global Indigenous Futures Research Centre. Holding a PhD in Philosophy from the University of Melbourne (2021), his work bridges conceptual engineering with social justice frameworks.
His research focuses on Conceptual Engineering, Metalinguistic Disagreement, and Social Justice Implementation, examining how linguistic frameworks perpetuate oppression and enable resistance. Key themes include structural injustice, gaslighting dynamics, and mixed-race identity ontology, with strong emphasis on epistemic agency within oppressive systems.
Recent publications reveal increasing engagement with Indigenous epistemologies and decolonial frameworks, particularly through the Global Indigenous Futures Research Centre. His 2024-2025 work shows expansion into grief theory and capacities approaches, while maintaining core focus on conceptual resistance mechanisms.
