About: Dr Hye-min OH is a feminist scholar, writer, filmmaker, and educator. She holds a PhD in Women’s Studies from Ewha Women’s University in Seoul and an MA in Gender and Diversity from the Freie Universität Berlin. Her dissertation, entitled ‘Epistemic Vulnerability of Korean Budding Feminists in the Era of Post-Feminism Reboot.' focused on the contemporary and generational context, examining the impact of feminism and anti-feminism backlash on the young generation. 

Following the emergence of the #MeToo movement in the arts sector, she has taught mandatory feminist courses at the Korea National University of Arts in Seoul for six years. In an educational environment characterized by acceptance and resistance, she cultivated her interest in feminist pedagogy. She participated in numerous projects to develop educational content and published academic papers and books. In addition to her previous activities, she has expressed a desire to research the current situation in which alternative knowledge, defined as information that deviates from established facts and is often used to manipulate public opinion, is replacing and influencing reality. To this end, she was awarded a Global Encounters Fellowship at the Eberhard Karls University Tübingen, Germany, where she is currently engaged in research to identify responses to this phenomenon from a transnational perspective, with a particular focus on resilience and institutionalization.

Activities at the College of Fellows:

At the College of Fellows, I will form a focus group with the other members of the current Global Encounters cohort. I plan to participate fully in College of Fellows academic life and work collaboratively with the other Global Encounters Fellows. I will spend my time in Tübingen preparing a book manuscript for publication, as well as other article length projects. I will also take part in several symposia and workshops.

About: 

I am a historian of the late medieval and early modern period, with a focus on religious, cultural, and migration histories. I earned my PhD in History from the University of Rochester in 2024. My research has been supported by Fulbright-Hays, the Renaissance Society of America, and the American Institute of Maghrib Studies, among others. My current book project “Valorous Defeat: North African Narratives of the Morisco Expulsion” examines how memory, conflict, and religious identity interact during migratory processes and diasporic communities and is based on archival research in Morocco, Tunisia, and Spain.
