The pluralism of justification


Meylan, Anne (2017). The pluralism of justification. In: Coliva, Annalisa; Jang Lee Linding Pedersen, Nikolaj. Epistemic Pluralism. London: Springer, 129-143.

Abstract

This article argues that “justification” denotes distinct technical properties in contemporary epistemology. It is structured as follows. Section 1 spells out a distinction between two ways of tackling the traditional question: “what is a justified belief?” Sections 2 and 3 exploit some of the upshots of Sect. 1 in order to show that classical reliabilism, accessibilism and presumably many other accounts of justification use the predicate “justified” in distinct technical ways
