Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Hardcover. Prejudice influences peoples thoughts and behaviors in many ways; it can lead people to underestimate others credibility, to read anger or hysteria into their words, or to expect knowledge and truth to sound a certain wayor to come from a certain type of person. These biases and mistakes can have a big effect on everything from an institutional culture to an individuals self-understanding. These kinds of intellectual harms are known as epistemic injustice.Most people are opposed to unfair prejudices (at least in principle), and no one wants to make avoidable mistakes. But research in the social sciences reveals a disturbing truth: Even people who intend to be fair-minded and unprejudiced are influenced by unconscious biases and stereotypes. We may sincerely want to be epistemically just, but we frequently fail, and simply thinking harder about it will not fix the problem.The essays collected in this volume draw from cutting-edge social science research and detailed case studies, to suggest how we can better tackle our unconscious reactions and institutional biases, to help ameliorate epistemic injustice. The volume concludes with an afterward by Miranda Fricker, who catalyzed recent scholarship on epistemic injustice, reflecting on these new lines of research and potential future directions to explore. This volume draws together cutting edge research from the social sciences to find ways of overcoming the unconscious prejusice that is present in our everyday decisions, a phenomenon coined by the philosopher Miranda Fricker as 'epistemic injustice'.
