Knowledge by agreement: the programme of communitarian epistemology
New York: Oxford University Press (2002)
Abstract
Martin Kusch puts forth two controversial ideas: that knowledge is a social status and that knowledge is primarily the possession of groups rather than individuals. He defends the radical implications of his views: that knowledge is political, and that it varies with communities. This bold approach to epistemology is a challenge to philosophy and the wider academic worldAuthor's Profile
