Credibility Trouble: When ‘I Believe You’ is an Epistemic Wrong 信誉问题:当“我相信你”是一个认识错误

ABSTRACT This article defends the counterintuitive conclusion that public assignments of credibility – including statements, by hearers, of ‘that’s right’, ‘she is credible’, or ‘I believe you’ – can actually constitute a pernicious form of epistemic wrong. Sometimes referred to colloquially as ‘lip service’, the wrong occurs when, owing to ethically poisonous epistemic failures, hearers outwardly validate testifiers’ credibility despite not fully or duly believing them. To explain this wrong, I introduce a distinction between performed and internal credibility assignments (PCA and ICA) and describe an epistemic dysfunction in which they misalign. I focus on cases in which misaligned PCA of ‘credible’ falsely – although sometimes non-deliberately – signal to testifiers and bystanders that testifiers have been believed; Republican hearers’ positive reception of Christine Blasey Ford’s 2018 testimony serves as a central case. Although some misaligned PCA are not wrongful, when epistemic and ethical failures including forms of identity prejudice and pernicious ignorance lead PCA of ‘credible’ to misalign, the PCA wrong testifiers in their capacities as knowers. These epistemic wrongs are particularly pernicious because the PCA conceal that testimony has not been efficacious, inflicting and exacerbating distinct harms.

Towards a Clear and Fair Conceptualization of Empathy 走向一个清晰而公平的移情概念

ABSTRACT Empathy is operationalised and measured in various different ways in research. I have identified several trends in empathy research that have resulted in what I refer to as neurotypical gatekeeping of the concept of empathy. Narrow assumptions on the relationship between experiences and expressions have made the concept exclusive to those who are perceived as neurotypical. In several ways, this has biased our knowledge of empathy, especially regarding autism. This does not only invalidate autistic empathy, but also sustains a harmful and stigmatizing narrative of autism. In this paper, I expand on the neurotypical gatekeeping of empathy as a matter of epistemic injustice and argue why and how neurodiversity calls for a reconceptualization of empathy. I continue by building a proposal for a clear and fair notion of empathy. I argue that we need to settle the dispute on empathy and morality by accepting the value associated with empathy in society, and use an anti-discriminatory normative conceptualization accordingly. I propose to understand empathy as appropriately attending to experiential differences and similarities, balancing between – what I introduce as - distantism and proximism. I discuss conceptual and methodological implications of this approach to empathy, as well as its application to neurodiversity.
在研究中,共情以各种不同的方式进行操作和测量。我已经确定了移情研究中的几个趋势,这些趋势导致了我所说的移情概念的神经典型把关。对经验和表达之间关系的狭隘假设使得这个概念只适用于那些被认为是神经典型的人。在很多方面,这让我们对同理心的认识产生了偏差,尤其是在自闭症方面。这不仅使自闭症患者的同情心无效,而且还维持了对自闭症的有害和污名化的叙述。在本文中,我将移情的神经典型把关作为认知不公正的问题进行了扩展,并讨论了神经多样性为什么以及如何要求重新概念化移情。我继续提出一个关于同理心的清晰而公平的概念。我认为,我们需要通过接受社会中与同理心相关的价值来解决同理心和道德的争议,并相应地使用反歧视的规范性概念。我建议将共情理解为对经验差异和相似之处的适当关注,在我所引入的距离主义和接近主义之间取得平衡。我将讨论这种移情方法的概念和方法含义,以及它在神经多样性中的应用。

Lessons from Reckwitz and Rosa: Towards a Constructive Dialogue between Critical Analytics and Critical Theory 雷克维茨和罗莎的经验教训:走向批判性分析与批判性理论的建设性对话

ABSTRACT It is hard to overstate the growing impact of the works of Andreas Reckwitz and Hartmut Rosa on contemporary social theory. Given the quality and originality of their intellectual contributions, it is no accident that they can be regarded as two towering figures of contemporary German social theory. The far-reaching significance of their respective approaches is reflected not only in their numerous publications but also in the fast-evolving secondary literature engaging with their writings. All of this should be reason enough to take note of their collaborative work, which, most recently, has culminated in the publication of their co-authored book Spätmoderne in der Krise: Was leistet die Gesellschaftstheorie? (Berlin: Suhrkamp, 2021). The main purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that the latest exchange between Reckwitz and Rosa contains valuable insights into recent and ongoing trends in society in general and social theory in particular. The first part comprises an outline of the central matters at stake in, and the core lessons learnt from, the constructive dialogue between Reckwitz’s critical analytics and Rosa’s critical theory, before moving, in the second part, to an assessment of the most significant limitations of their respective views and propositions.
安德烈亚斯·雷克维茨和哈特穆特·罗莎的作品对当代社会理论的影响越来越大,怎么说都不为过。鉴于他们智力贡献的质量和独创性,他们被视为当代德国社会理论的两位杰出人物并非偶然。他们各自方法的深远意义不仅反映在他们众多的出版物中,而且反映在与他们的著作相关的快速发展的二手文献中。所有这些都应该足以让我们注意到他们的合作工作,最近,他们共同撰写的书Spätmoderne在der Krise的出版达到了高潮:leistet die Gesellschaftstheorie?(柏林:Suhrkamp, 2021)。本文的主要目的是证明Reckwitz和Rosa之间的最新交流包含了对一般社会和社会理论中最近和正在进行的趋势的有价值的见解。第一部分概述了雷克维茨的批判分析和罗莎的批判理论之间的建设性对话所涉及的核心问题,并从中吸取了核心教训,然后在第二部分对他们各自观点和命题的最重要局限性进行了评估。

‘Conspiracy Theory’ as a Tonkish Term: Some Runabout Inference-Tickets from Truth to Falsehood “阴谋论”作为一个英国术语:一些粗略的推论——从真理到谬误的门票

ABSTRACT I argue that ‘conspiracy theory’ and ‘conspiracy theorist’ as commonly employed are ‘tonkish’ terms (as defined by Arthur Prior and Michael Dummett), licensing inferences from truths to falsehoods; indeed, that they are mega-tonkish terms, since their use is governed by different and competing sets of introduction and elimination rules, delivering different and inconsistent results. Thus ‘conspiracy theory’ and ‘conspiracy theorist’ do not have determinate extensions, which means that generalizations about conspiracy theories or conspiracy theorists do not have determinate truth-values. Hence conspiracy theory theory – psychological or social scientific research into conspiracy theorists and what is wrong with them – is often about as intellectually respectable as an enquiry into bastards and what makes them so mean.
我认为,通常使用的“阴谋论”和“阴谋论者”是“俗气”的术语(由亚瑟·普赖尔和迈克尔·达米特定义),允许从真理到谬误的推论;事实上,它们都是非常难懂的术语,因为它们的使用受到不同且相互竞争的引入和淘汰规则的约束,产生了不同且不一致的结果。因此,“阴谋论”和“阴谋论者”没有确定的延伸,这意味着关于阴谋论或阴谋论者的概括没有确定的真值。因此,阴谋论理论——对阴谋论者及其问题的心理学或社会科学研究——通常在智力上与对私生子及其卑鄙之处的调查一样受人尊敬。

On the Inconsistency between Practice and Reporting in Science: The Genesis of Scientific Articles 论科学实践与报道的不一致:科学文章的成因

ABSTRACT Scientific publications depict science as an orderly endeavour and the epitome of rationality. In contrast, scientific practice is messy and not strictly rational. Here, I analyse this inconsistency, which is recurrent, and try to clarify its meaning for the functioning of science. The discussion is based on a review of relevant literature and detailed analysis of the role of each of the three intervening elements, the scientist, his/her practice and the scientific publication, with an emphasis on the circular mode of the latter’s creation. This way, I will discuss the nature, causes and relevance of the inconsistency. That corresponds to answering three questions, respectively: ‘what are the characteristics of the inconsistency?’, ‘what are its origins?’ and ‘how could it be interpreted within a model for the structure and functioning of science?’ From this discussion it is concluded that, contrary to the negative character generally attributed to it, the inconsistency between practice and reporting is part of the production mechanism of science.
科学出版物将科学描述为一种有序的努力和理性的缩影。相比之下,科学实践是混乱的,并不是严格理性的。在这里,我分析了这种反复出现的不一致性,并试图阐明它对科学运作的意义。讨论的基础是对相关文献的回顾,并详细分析了科学家、他/她的实践和科学出版物这三个介入要素中的每一个的作用,重点是后者创作的循环模式。通过这种方式,我将讨论不一致的性质、原因和相关性。这分别对应于回答三个问题:“不一致的特征是什么?”它的起源是什么以及“如何在科学结构和功能的模型中解释它?”从这次讨论中得出的结论是,与普遍认为的负面性质相反,实践和报告之间的不一致是科学产生机制的一部分。

Producing ME/CFS in Dutch Newspapers. A Social-Discursive Analysis About Non/credibility 在荷兰报纸上制作脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征。关于不可信的社会话语分析

ABSTRACT Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) is a highly contested illness. This paper analyzes the discursive production of knowledge about, and recognition of ME/CFS. By mobilizing insights from social epistemology and epistemic injustice studies, this paper reveals how actors, through their social-discursive practices, attribute to establishing, sustaining, and disregarding their own and others’ epistemological position. In focusing on the case of the Dutch newspaper reporting about ME/CFS, this paper shows that the debate about this condition predominantly revolves around the ways in which people who make truth claims are represented. In being portrayed as gendered, affectatious, formerly very able, fanatical, or benevolent, people with ME/CFS are constructed as non-/credible. In the debate about what causes ME/CFS, by contrast, the production of non-/credible knowledge focuses more on the content of epistemic positions. Actors in this debate argue that they know the (clear) causes for the illness, something which functions as a discursive strategy to establish and enhance their credibility. This paper contends, however, that since this discursive demarcation of causes is consistently infused with uncertainty – with multi-interpretability, with diffuse explanations, and absence of current knowledge – the credibility of these actors’ epistemic position is undercut rather than established.
摘要肌痛性脑脊髓炎(ME)/慢性疲劳综合征(CFS)是一种备受争议的疾病。本文分析了关于脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征的知识的话语生成和认知。通过调动社会认识论和认识论不公正研究的见解,本文揭示了行动者如何通过其社会话语实践,归因于建立、维持和无视自己和他人的认识论地位。通过关注荷兰报纸报道脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征的案例,本文表明,关于这种情况的辩论主要围绕着声称真相的人的代表方式展开。患有脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征的人被描绘成性别化的、做作的、以前非常能干的、狂热的或仁慈的,被构造成不可信的。相比之下,在关于是什么导致脑脊髓炎/慢性疲劳综合征的争论中,不可信知识的产生更多地集中在认识立场的内容上。这场辩论中的参与者辩称,他们知道疾病的(明确)原因,这是一种建立和提高可信度的话语策略。然而,本文认为,由于这种原因的话语划分始终充满了不确定性——具有多重可解释性、分散的解释和缺乏当前知识——这些参与者的认识立场的可信度被削弱而不是建立起来。

Towards Epistemic Translatability: On Epistemic Difference and Hermeneutical Injustice 认识的可译性:论认识的差异与解释学的不公正

ABSTRACT This paper addresses the relationship between epistemic difference and hermeneutical injustice, starting from an example discussed by Townsend and Townsend: the case of the Kichwa Indigenous People of Sarayaku v. Ecuador before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. My thesis is that translation is inevitably at work in communicative exchanges involving epistemic difference, and that considering the problem of translation allows us to refine our understanding of epistemic injustice and mobilise further resources to respond to it. In a first step, I will discuss McGlynn’s critique of Townsend and Townsend’s approach, and in particular the notion of discursive injustice elaborated by Kukla. Drawing on the notion of symbolic institution as theorised by the Belgian phenomenologist Marc Richir, I will show how translation is at work in this case, seeking to pinpoint the hermeneutical injustice at play. In a second step, I will reflect on the different paradigms of translation and argue for a broad, processual and layered conception of it. Building on Antonio Gramsci’s concept of translatability of languages, I will introduce the notion of epistemic translatability as that which allows translational strategies to be devised across epistemic difference in order to counter hermeneutical injustice.
{"title":"Towards Epistemic Translatability: On Epistemic Difference and Hermeneutical Injustice","authors":"Angelo Vannini","doi":"10.1080/02691728.2023.2188127","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/02691728.2023.2188127","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACT This paper addresses the relationship between epistemic difference and hermeneutical injustice, starting from an example discussed by Townsend and Townsend: the case of the Kichwa Indigenous People of Sarayaku v. Ecuador before the Inter-American Court of Human Rights. My thesis is that translation is inevitably at work in communicative exchanges involving epistemic difference, and that considering the problem of translation allows us to refine our understanding of epistemic injustice and mobilise further resources to respond to it. In a first step, I will discuss McGlynn’s critique of Townsend and Townsend’s approach, and in particular the notion of discursive injustice elaborated by Kukla. Drawing on the notion of symbolic institution as theorised by the Belgian phenomenologist Marc Richir, I will show how translation is at work in this case, seeking to pinpoint the hermeneutical injustice at play. In a second step, I will reflect on the different paradigms of translation and argue for a broad, processual and layered conception of it. Building on Antonio Gramsci’s concept of translatability of languages, I will introduce the notion of epistemic translatability as that which allows translational strategies to be devised across epistemic difference in order to counter hermeneutical injustice.","PeriodicalId":51614,"journal":{"name":"Social Epistemology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41793562","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
