About

Hi, I am [[Sebastián] Sánchez Martínez]. Philosophy is my business. This is my academic webpage.

So, I recently finished my PhD in philosophy at TU Dresden’s Institute of Philosophy. My research was mostly funded with a DAAD grant.

Before this, I worked a couple of years at the Universidad Tecnológica de Pereira giving lectures on informal logic.

In short, my main research interests are in epistemology and theories of rationality in different disciplines, like psychology, economics, and decision theory. I’m mainly interested in how limitations in human and non-human reasoners (like limits in memory, computation, and time) can affect aswers to questions like when are our attitudes justified? or when are our attitudes rational?

After having completed my dissertation about simplified reasoning, I am now working on academic writing projects, drawing on contemporary debates in epistemology and bounded rationality.

As side interests, I like to read and write about foundational and applied aspects of speech-act theory and about modern philosophy.
