from Part II - Beings of Action in Thought
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 June 2021
This chapter deals with a number of problems for pragmatic encroachment that arise because we are social beings whose lives are shaped by various inequalities. In section 8.1, I introduce the problem of wealth and explain how my account of pragmatic encroachment at least avoids certain instances of it. In section 8.2, I introduce the problem of joint deliberation, which my account cannot easily avoid. In section 8.3, I offer a view which I call Epistemic Communism to complement my account of pragmatic encroachment in order to deal with the problem of joint deliberation. In section 8.4, I address how my account deals with the phenomenon of epistemic injustice.
