PROFILE
Trent Hamann has been a member of the Philosophy Department since
2000. Dr. Hamann’s research interests focus on the
intersection of ethical practices, politics, culture, and the

in examining how historical forms of truth and power relations
inform how we think, act, and speak as subjects.
