An epistemic value theory
No full textFor any normative domain, we can theorize about what is good in that domain. Such theories include utilitarianism, a view about what is good morally. But there are many domains other than the moral; these include the prudential, the aesthetic, and the intellectual or epistemic. In this last domain, it is (for instance) good to be knowledgeable and bad to ignore evidence, quite apart from the morality, prudence, and aesthetics of these things. This dissertation builds a theory that stands to the epistemic domain as utilitarianism stands to the moral domain. It builds an epistemic value theory.Ph.D.Includes bibliographical references (p. 247-251)
