Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge

Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge

This is the first collection of essays exclusively devoted to knowledge from non-knowledge and related issues. It features original contributions from some of the most prominent and up-and-coming scholars working in contemporary epistemology. There is a nascent literature in epistemology about the possibility of inferential knowledge based on premises that are for one reason or another not known. The essays in this book explore if and how epistemology can accommodate cases where knowledge is generated from something other than knowledge. Can reasoning from false beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from unjustified beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from gettiered beliefs generate knowledge? Can reasoning from propositions one does not even believe generate knowledge? The contributors to this book tackle these and other questions head-on. Together they advance the debate about knowledge from non-knowledge in novel and interesting directions. Illuminating Errors will be of interest to researchers and advanced students working in epistemology and philosophy of mind. | Illuminating Errors New Essays on Knowledge from Non-Knowledge

Emotional Self-Knowledge

Emotional Self-Knowledge

This volume sheds light on the affective dimensions of self-knowledge and the roles that emotions and other affective states play in promoting or obstructing our knowledge of ourselves. It is the first book specifically devoted to the issue of affective self-knowledge. The relation between self-knowledge and human emotions is an often emphasized but poorly articulated one. While philosophers of emotion tend to give affectivity a central role in making us who we are the philosophical literature on self-knowledge focuses overwhelmingly on cognitive states and does not give a special place to the emotions. Currently there is little dialogue between both fields or with other philosophical traditions that have important contributions to make to this topic such as phenomenology and Asian philosophy. This volume brings together philosophers from the relevant fields to explore two related sets of questions: First do philosophers of emotion exaggerate the importance of our affective lives in making us who we are? Or is it philosophers of self-knowledge who misunderstand emotions? Second what is the role of emotions in self-knowledge? What sort of self-knowledge can be secured by paying attention to our emotions? Emotional Self-Knowledge is an essential resource for researchers and advanced students working on philosophy of emotion philosophy of mind epistemology philosophical psychology and phenomenology.

Routledge Handbook of the Economics of Knowledge

Routledge Handbook of the Economics of Knowledge

The Routledge Handbook of the Economics of Knowledge provides a comprehensive framework to integrate the advancements over the last 20 years in the analysis of technological knowledge as an economic good and in the static and dynamic characteristics of its generation process. There is a growing consensus in the field of economics that knowledge technological knowledge in particular is one of the most relevant resources of wealth yet it is one of the most difficult and complex activities to understand or even to conceptualize. The economics of knowledge is an emerging field that explores the generation exploitation and dissemination of technological knowledge. Technological knowledge cannot any longer be regarded as a homogenous good that stems from standardized generation processes. Quite the opposite technological knowledge appears more and more to be a basket of heterogeneous items resources and even experiences. All of these sources which are both internal and external to the firm are complementary as is the interplay between a bottom-up and top-down generation processes. In this context the interactions between the public research system private research laboratories and various networks of learning processes within and among firms play a major role in the creation of technological knowledge. In this Handbook special attention is given to the relationship among technological knowledge and both upstream scientific knowledge and related downstream resources. By addressing the antecedents and consequences of technological knowledge from both an upstream and downstream perspective this Handbook will become an indispensable tool for scholars and practitioners aiming to master the generation and the use of technological knowledge.

Moral Knowledge

Moral Knowledge

Originally published in 1988 this book discusses if moral knowledge exists and if so if it is similar to other forms of knowledge. This book approaches the issues from both historical and contemporary perspectives and in order to determine whether there is a real property of rightness looks to the ethical theories of Hobbes Hume and Kant. This historical analysis leads to a systematic comparison of three theories of the nature of ethics: realism emotivism and coherentism. The nature of coherence is explained using legal reasoning as a model. Moral reasoning is compared and contrasted with reasoning both in science and law showing how ethics differs from science and empirical disciplines.

African Epistemology Essays on Being and Knowledge

African Epistemology Essays on Being and Knowledge

This book investigates how knowledge is conceived and explored within the African context. Epistemology or the theory of knowledge has historically been dominated by the Western approach to the discourse of knowledge. This book however shines a much-needed spotlight on knowledge systems originating within the African continent. Bringing together key voices from across the field of African philosophy this book explores the nature of knowledge across the continent and how they are rooted in Africans’ ontological sense of being and self. At a time when moves to decolonize curricula are gaining momentum this book shows how understanding the specific ways of knowing that form part of the every day life of the African will play an important part in rebalancing studies of philosophy globally. Employing critical conceptual and rigorous analyses of the nature and essence of knowledge as understood by indigenous African societies the book ultimately asks what could pass as an African theory of knowledge. This important guide to the connections between knowledge and being in African philosophical thought will be an important resource for researchers and students of philosophy and African studies. | African Epistemology Essays on Being and Knowledge

The Disappearance of Moral Knowledge

The Disappearance of Moral Knowledge

Based on an unfinished manuscript by the late philosopher Dallas Willard this book makes the case that the 20th century saw a massive shift in Western beliefs and attitudes concerning the possibility of moral knowledge such that knowledge of the moral life and of its conduct is no longer routinely available from the social institutions long thought to be responsible for it. In this sense moral knowledge—as a publicly available resource for living—has disappeared. Via a detailed survey of main developments in ethical theory from the late 19th through the late 20th centuries Willard explains philosophy’s role in this shift. In pointing out the shortcomings of these developments he shows that the shift was not the result of rational argument or discovery but largely of arational social forces—in other words there was no good reason for moral knowledge to have disappeared. The Disappearance of Moral Knowledge is a unique contribution to the literature on the history of ethics and social morality. Its review of historical work on moral knowledge covers a wide range of thinkers including T. H Green G. E Moore Charles L. Stevenson John Rawls and Alasdair MacIntyre. But most importantly it concludes with a novel proposal for how we might reclaim moral knowledge that is inspired by the phenomenological approach of Knud Logstrup and Emmanuel Levinas. Edited and eventually completed by three of Willard’s former graduate students this book marks the culmination of Willard’s project to find a secure basis in knowledge for the moral life.
