The (virtue) epistemology of political ignorance. Boult, C. American Philosophical Quarterly, 58(3):217–232, 2021. abstract bibtex One typical aim of responsibilist virtue epistemology is to employ the notion of intellectual virtue in pursuit of an ameliorative epistemology. This paper focuses on “political inquiry” as a case study for examining the ameliorative value of intellectual virtue. The main claim is that the case of political inquiry threatens to expose responsibilist virtue epistemology in a general way as focusing too narrowly on the role of individual intellectual character traits in attempting to improve our epistemic practices. © 2021 by the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois.
