Epistemic Injustice and Self-Trust

Abstract
In this paper, I sketch an account of intellectual self-trust, arguing
that it has an important non-cognitive component and that it is
created an sustained socially. Next, drawing on work in social
psychology, I look at the ways in which social injustice creates
epistemic injustice, which in turn undermines self-trust. Finally,
drawing the empirical and philosophical threads together, I make some
suggestions for remedy.
