Resumen de Causal tracking reliabilism and the Gettier problem

Mark McEvoy

  • This paper argues that reliabilism can handle Gettier cases once it restricts knowledge producing reliable processes to those that involve a suitable causal link between the subject�s belief and the fact it references. Causal tracking reliabilism (as this version of reliabilism is called) also avoids the problems that refuted the causal theory of knowledge, along with problems besetting more contemporary theories (such as virtue reliabilism and the �safety� account of knowledge). Finally, causal tracking reliabilism allows for a response to Linda Zagzebski�s challenge that no theory of knowledge can both eliminate the possibility of Gettier cases while also allowing fully warranted but false beliefs.
