In defense of epistemic relativism
Episteme 4 (1):30-48 (2007)

In Fear of Knowledge, Paul Boghossian argues against various forms of epistemic relativism. In this paper, I criticize Boghossian’s arguments against a particular variety of relativism. I then argue in favor of a thesis that is very similar to this variety of relativismAuthor's Profile
