The Routledge Handbook of Social Epistemology is an authoritative and comprehensive survey of the most important issues and developments in one of the fastest growing areas of research in contemporary philosophy.
Edited by an international team of leading scholars, The Routledge Handbook of Social Epistemology is the first major reference work devoted to this growing field. The Handbook’s 46 chapters, all appearing in print here for the first time, and written by philosophers and social theorists from around the world, are organized into eight main parts:










Historical Backgrounds







The Epistemology of Testimony







Disagreement, Diversity, and Relativism







Science and Social Epistemology







The Epistemology of Groups







Feminist Epistemology







The Epistemology of Democracy







Further Horizons for Social Epistemology






With lists of references after each chapter and a comprehensive index, this volume will prove to be the definitive guide to the burgeoning interdisciplinary field of social epistemology.
