This book examines epistemic pluralism, a brand new area of
research in epistemology with dramatic implications for the
discipline. Challenging traditional assumptions about the nature of
justification, an expert team of contributors explores pluralism
about justification, with compelling first-order results -
including analysis of the various requisites one might want to
impose on the notion of justification (and therefore of knowledge)
and why. It is shown why a long-lasting dispute within epistemology
about the nature of justification has reached a stalemate and how
embracing a different overarching outlook might lead to progress
and aid better appreciation of the relationship between the various
epistemic projects scholars have been pursuing. With close
connections to the idea of epistemic relativism, and with specific
applications to various areas of contemporary epistemology (such as
the debate over epistemic norms of action and assertion, epistemic
peers' disagreement, self-knowledge and the status of philosophical
disputes about ontology) this fascinating new volume is essential
reading for scholars, researchers and advanced students in the
discipline.
