Topic: |
More Non-Counterexamples to Tracking Theories of Knowledge |
|
| |
|
Abstract:
In 2004 in “Resurrecting the Tracking Theories” Adams & Clarke explained why a host of putative counterexamples to tracking theories of knowledge (including Kripke’s) weren’t counterexamples. Recently a spate of new examples by Haze, Williams & Sinhababu also purport to be counterexamples, but aren’t. In this paper I give the examples, explain how they are supposed to be counterexamples, and why they aren’t counterexamples.
