{"product_id":"epistemic-injustice-miranda-fricker-9780199570522","title":"Epistemic Injustice","description":"In this exploration of new territory between ethics and epistemology, Miranda Fricker argues that there is a distinctively epistemic type of injustice, in which someone is wronged specifically in their capacity as a knower. Justice is one of the oldest and most central themes in philosophy, but in order to reveal the ethical dimension of our epistemic practices the focus must shift to injustice. Fricker adjusts the philosophical lens so that we see through to the negative space that is \u003cem\u003eepistemic injustice\u003c\/em\u003e. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The book explores two different types of epistemic injustice, each driven by a form of prejudice, and from this exploration comes a positive account of two corrective ethical-intellectual virtues. The characterization of these phenomena casts light on many issues, such as social power, prejudice, virtue, and the genealogy of knowledge, and it proposes a virtue epistemological account of testimony. In this ground-breaking book, the entanglements of reason and social power are traced in a new way, to reveal the different forms of epistemic injustice and their place in the broad pattern of social injustice.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Miranda Fricker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0199570523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780199570522\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/28\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.52lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Miranda Fricker","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44048737075455,"sku":"9780199570522","price":40.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_fa2ff1e4-8b03-48e3-82fb-e49d53e795a0.jpg?v=1684997529","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/epistemic-injustice-miranda-fricker-9780199570522","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
