Epistemic Justification
Year: 2017
Type: book-chapter
Abstract: What is the nature of the justifier and of the justified, and how are they related? The answers to these questions depend on whether one embraces internalism or externalism. As far as the formal side of the justification relation is concerned, however, the difference between internalism and externalism seems irrelevant. Roughly, there are three proposals for the formal relation. One of them conceives the justification relation as probabilistic support; in fact, however, probabilistic support is only a necessary and not a sufficient condition for justification.
