EPISTEMIC NORMS

TEAM MEMBERSPROJECTS | PUBLICATIONS

Team Leader : Gloria Origgi

                  

Members of the team study knowledge and epistemic norms from the twofold perspective of cognitive science (Proust) and social epistemology (Bouvier, Origgi).

Among the topics under study are : the nature of knowledge and its properties ; the social dimension of knowledge, metacognition and epistemic introspection ; the role or argumentation and rhetoric in the shaping of collective beliefs ; epistemic authority, reputation, and the control of legitimacy on information sources and political epistemology, that is, how knowledge affects political action and how it is influenced by political institutions. The team studies also social emotions and their impact on knowledge.

The team has hosted Joelle Proust’s ERC project Dividnorm (2012-2016), and a project funded by CNRS and directed by Gloria Origgi on gender biases in epistemic authority and the representation of intelligence (2013 - 2015). Since 2018, the team is involved in the ALLEA Working Group on Truth, Trust and Expertise, whose aim is producing reports on trust in expertise and the dynamics of knowledge production.
