Epistemic Breakthroughs Workshop
Our epistemic lives are marked by discoveries, changes of mind, epiphanies (if we are lucky), and ‘turning points’ – some of them potentially radical in nature. We may call these events epistemic breakthroughs. This workshop invites philosophers, psychologists, and social scientists to think about the nature, varieties, and causation of such breakthroughs, as well as about their role in politics, society, and personal life. Confirmed participants include: C. Thi Nguyen, Sanford Goldberg, Sophie-Grace Chappell, Adam Etinson, Rachel Fraser, Fabienne Peter, Justin Snedegar, Julia Driver, Louise Hanson, Robert Talisse, Susanne Burri, Alexander Prescott-Couch, Cailin O’Connor, and others.
