Martin Bunzl

**Martin Bunzl** (lahir 1948, di London, Inggris) adalah profesor emeritus filsafat di Universitas Rutgers di New Brunswick, New Jersey, tempat ia memimpin *Rutgers Initiative in Climate and Social Policy* dari 2007 hingga 2011.

## Biografi
Bunzl lulus dari University of Minnesota, tempat ia memperoleh gelar BA dan Ph.D. Karya awalnya berfokus terutama pada kausalitas, di mana ia mengembangkan penjelasan deflasioner mengenai *causal overdetermination*; sesuatu yang oleh David Lewis disebut sebagai “peristiwa Bunzl”.

Dalam Filsafat Sejarah, fokus Bunzl adalah pada komitmen ontologis para sejarawan, termasuk penggunaan kontrafaktual. Natalie Zemon Davis, penulis *The Return of Martin Guerre* dan *Society and Culture in Early Modern France*, menulis tentang buku Bunzl berjudul *Real History*: “[buku ini] memberikan udara segar dalam penulisan tentang filsafat dan epistemologi sejarah. Dengan bahasa yang dapat diakses oleh sejarawan, filsuf, dan publik pembaca secara umum, ia mengeksplorasi pertanyaan-pertanyaan yang diajukan oleh berbagai ‘belokan’ dalam dekade pascaperang: dekonstruktif, linguistik, sastra, antropologis, dan kuantitatif. Ia melihat bukan hanya apa yang dikatakan para sejarawan tentang metode mereka, tetapi apa yang sebenarnya mereka lakukan.”

Dengan keahlian dalam Filsafat Sains, ia adalah penulis *The Context of Explanation*, *Real History*, dan *Uncertainty and the Philosophy of Climate Change*, serta menjadi editor bersama *Buying Freedom* dan *Foundational Issues in Human Brain Mapping*, serta berbagai artikel akademik.

Penelitian terbaru Bunzl berada dalam bidang risiko katastrofik.
