LARGER SCALE PROJECT (happy to discuss)
Developing a theory of epistemic legitimacy. Doxastic focus in epistemology cannot explain all (or most) of the problems of misinformation, conspiracy theories, and so on. The problem is not (always) one of belief, it is a problem of epistemic legitimacy. Ideas that are not serious contenders with the truth---that are not epistemically legitimate---areĀ legitimised in the epistemic environment.
