Evidential Pluralism and accounts of establishing

Wilde, Michael Edward (2025) Evidential Pluralism and accounts of establishing. Asian Journal of Philosophy, 4 (1). Article Number 29. ISSN 2731-4642. (doi:10.1007/s44204-025-00252-4) (KAR id:108876)

Abstract

In Evidential Pluralism in the Social Sciences, Yafeng Shan and Jon Williamson do a great job of clarifying, motivating, and defending the commitments of Evidential Pluralism. In this commentary, I will show that one of their clarifications commits Evidential Pluralism to a particular account of establishing. And I will argue that a non-committal account of establishing would better promote the main message of the book.
