Single Idea 9382
[filed under theme 13. Knowledge Criteria / C. External Justification / 1. External Justification
]
Full Idea
I call 'entitlement' (as opposed to justification) the epistemic rights or warrants that need not be understood by or even be accessible to the subject.
Gist of Idea
Subjects may be unaware of their epistemic 'entitlements', unlike their 'justifications'
Source
Tyler Burge (Content Preservation [1993]), quoted by Paul Boghossian - Analyticity Reconsidered §III
Book Ref
-: 'Nous' [-], p.20
A Reaction
I espouse a coherentism that has both internal and external components, and is mediated socially. In Burge's sense, animals will sometimes have 'entitlement'. I prefer, though, not to call this 'knowledge'. 'Entitled true belief' is good.
