summary | Modal operator epistemology is a formal epistemological paradigm obtained by mixing modal, tense and epistemic logic with rudimentary elements from formal learning theory. The paradigm was developed in The Convergence of Scientific Knowledge (Springer: 2001) and used there and elsewhere to study the validity of limiting convergent knowledge (Mainstream and Formal Epistemology (Cambridge University Press, 2006)).Studying knowledge is also studying skepticism. Skepticism is usually considered to being a short-run strategy. Using modal operator epistemology this paper scrutinizes what happens to skepticism in the long run: Can skepticism outstrip knowledge in the limit? |
