Epistemic injustice in utterance interpretation
Synthese 194 (9):3421-3443 (2017)
Abstract
This paper argues that underlying social biases are able to affect the processes underlying linguistic interpretation. The result is a series of harms systematically inflicted on marginalised speakers. It is also argued that the role of biases and stereotypes in interpretation complicates Miranda Fricker's proposed solution to epistemic injustice.Author's Profile
