Ryle and Oakeshott on the “Knowing-How/Knowing-That” Distinction

In Corey Abel (ed.), The Meanings of Michael Oakeshott's Conservatism (2010)
Abstract Gilbert Ryle’s “Knowing How/Knowing That” distinction gave crisparticulation to a long-standing epistemological concern that Michael Oakeshott had: that is,what is the epistemic status of the area that comprises our waking lives, the domain of practical reasoning, of which political practice, on Oakeshott’s account, is but one aspect. This concern is set against a much broader purview: that of the nature of rationality, or more accurately the social nature of rationality.
