What constitutes a solution to the problem of skepticism? It has been traditionally held that one must produce an argument that would rationally persuade skeptical philosophers that they are mistaken. But there is a trend in recent epistemology toward the idea that we can solve the problem without giving skeptics any good reason to change their minds. This is what I call unambitious epistemology. This paper is a critique of that project.

为什么不说服怀疑论者？对明确认识论的批判

怀疑论问题的解决方案是什么？传统上认为，必须提出一种论据，以合理地说服怀疑主义哲学家认为他们是错误的。但是，在最近的认识论中，有一种趋势是我们可以解决问题而不给怀疑论者任何改变主意的充分理由。这就是我所谓的明确认识论。本文是对该项目的批评。
