Peter Baumann develops and defends a distinctive version of epistemic contextualism,
the viewthatthe truth conditions orthe meaning of knowledge attributions of the form
S knows that p” can vary with the context of the attributor. The first part of the book
examines arguments for contextualism and develops Baumann s version. The first
chapter deals with the argument from cases and ordinary usage; the following two
chapters address theoretical arguments, from reliability and from luck. The second
part of the book discusses the problems contextualism faces, to which it must respond,
and provides an extension of contextualism beyond epistemology. Within this section
Baumann discusses lottery-skepticism and argues for a contextual response.
The following chapter is dedicated to a homemade problem for contextualism:
a threat of inconsistency and Baumann argues for a way out and for a version of
contextualism that can underwrite this solution. A contextual account of
responsibility is then proposed: the concept of knowledge is not the only one which
allows for a contextual analysis and it is importantto explore structural analogies
in other areas of philosophy. The third part of the book is focused on some major
objections to contextualism and alternative views, namely subject-sensitive
invariantism, contrastivism, and relativism.
