Developmental Process Reliabilism: on Justification, Defeat, and Evidence

Erkenntnis 73 (1):1 - 17 (2010)

Abstract

Here I present and defend an etiological theory of objective, doxastic justification, and related theories of defeat and evidence. The theory is intended to solve a problem for reliabilist epistemologies— the problem of identifying relevant environments for assessing a process's reliability. It is also intended to go some way to accommodating, neutralizing, or explaining away many internalist-friendly elements in our epistemic thinking
