Mihaela Mihai (PhD, Political Science, Toronto) is Senior Lecturer in Political Theory at the University of Edinburgh. She is the author of Negative Emotions and Transitional Justice (Columbia, 2016) and the coeditor (with Albena Azmanova) of Reclaiming Democracy: Responsibility and the Right to Politics (Routledge, 20q15) and (with Mathias Thaler) of On the Uses and Abuses of Political Apologies (Palgrave, 2014). I chose her as a reader for her broad interests in political theory, political emotions, and art and politics.
