Many political philosophers have held that democracy has epistemic benefits. Most commonly, this case is made by arguing that democracies are better able to track the truth than other political arrangements. Truth, however, is not the only epistemic good that is politically valuable. A number of other epistemic goods – goods including evidence, intellectual virtue, epistemic justice, and empathetic understanding – can also have political value, and in ways that go beyond the value of truth. In this paper, I will survey those who have argued that democracy can be valuable because of these other epistemic benefits, considering (1) the ways in which these epistemic goods can be of political value and (2) the challenges that democracies face in producing them.

Skeptical theism, broadly construed, is an attempt to leverage our limited cognitive powers, in some specified sense, against “evidential” and “explanatory” arguments from evil. Since there are different versions of these kinds of arguments, there are correspondingly different versions of skeptical theism. In this paper, I consider four challenges to three central versions of skeptical theism: (a) the problem of generalized skepticism, (b) the problem of moral skepticism, (c) the problem of unqualified modal skepticism, and (d) the challenge from Bayesian epistemology.

Since there are different versions of these kinds of arguments, there are correspondingly different versions of skeptical theism. In this paper, I briefly explain three versions of these arguments from evil (two from William Rowe and one from Paul Draper) and the three versions of skeptical theism tailor‐made to block them (from Stephen Wykstra, Michael Bergmann, and Peter van Inwagen).

The concept of personal autonomy in contemporary moral and political philosophy is broadly associated with an agent's self-determining or self-governing capacities. However, scholars have long criticized the tendency in philosophy to idealize autonomy in an overtly atomistic and asocial manner, for example by assuming that autonomous individuals are totally independent decision-makers unaffected by interpersonal ties. Feminist philosophers especially have developed ‘relational’ approaches to autonomy in attempt to reconfigure this individualistic tradition in ways that are amenable to social considerations. Relational autonomy accounts are now known for espousing a more socially informed version of human agency. Such frameworks recognize that the very making of the autonomous self must involve some degree of socialization, for instance, or that certain subordinating social phenomena like oppression might problematically influence one's otherwise autonomous beliefs, preferences, and so forth. There remains much theoretical variation, however, in the range of relational accounts which have thus far been proposed. My Philosophy Compass article endeavours to highlight and organize some of the major points of disagreement between relational theories, covering distinctions commonly invoked in the debate. Despite the heterogeneity of relational autonomy theories, I also emphasize the ways that relational autonomy-theorizing makes for a challenging but valuable contribution to philosophy.
