The Public Perspective. Public Justification and the Ethics of Belief

Maria Paola Ferretti’s "The Public Perspective. Public Justifi cation and the Ethics of Belief" introduces an innovative and original approach to the discussion of political justification. Namely, Ferretti claims that the practice of political justifi is possible only where people endorse a common ethics of belief, a cluster of epistemic and moral norms that guide formation and reformation of the beliefs that inform our public perspective (1). Her position thus departs from many existing accounts of public justifi cation (particularly those presented by Rawls and Gaus) and focuses on (i) common epistemic rules and (ii) a shared commitment to a regulative, non-dogmatic idea of truth as necessary components of the process of public justifi cation.
