This text closes the gap between theory and practice by developing
case-by-case analyses of knowing other people in situations where
socio-political inequalities create patterns of knowledge, power
and privilege. The forms of knowledge that are necessary to inform
conceptions of care and empathy are examined. For instance, Code
investigates how stereotyping violates the senses of self of the
people being stereotyped. She reveals how gossip and story-telling
can count as viable sources of knowledge and how testimony can be
discounted and discredited in patterns of systematic incredulity.
This collection of trenchant essays show how reconfiguring
structures of cognitive authority and expertise are matters not
just of individual responsibility, but integral to the
reconstruction of communities and social orders where people can
live well.
