Max Kölbel (a la izquierda)
Max Kölbel grew up in Berlin and Hamburg (Germany). He obtained his PhD in Philosophy from King's College, University of London (UK), in 1997. His first post was as a postdoc at the Instituto de Investigaciones Filosóficas of the UNAM in México City. He then held positions at Swansea (UK), Cambridge (UK), and Birmingham (UK). He has been at ICREA since January 2008. His main interests are in philosophy of language, philosophical logic, epistemology and metaethics.



His research is mostly in the philosophy of language, but often in related areas of other philosophical disciplines. He is currently interested in the nature and purpose of semantic theories for natural languages, in the semantics-pragmatics distinction, in the way semantic theories should represent various forms of context dependence (including contextualism and relativism), in speech act theory, testimony, and in the nature of objectivity.
