Wright鈥檚 entitlement epistemology extends further\, however: Wright聽(2014)\, suggests that the warrant for 鈥榗ornerstone鈥 beliefs like 鈥榯here is an external world鈥 is generated by epistemically consequentialist Reichenbachian dominance reasoning. One strand of objections to the 2014 position is that the warrant provided is聽pragmatic聽rather than聽epistemic聽(see e.g. Pritchard (2007)\, Jenkins\, (2007)). This paper aims to suggest that the objection that the anti-sceptical warrants are merely pragmatic easily generalises to warrants generated by entitlement of cognitive project\, and Wright cannot avail himself of the strategy used to disarm the objection in the case of the anti-sceptical entitlement to fend off the objection that the entitlement to the validity of MPP provides merely pragmatic warrant. Instead\, I suggest that the entitlement to the validity of MPP cannot generate a pragmatic warrant聽at all. I will argue that given a plausible principle regarding pragmatic warrants and Kripke鈥檚 鈥楢doption Problem鈥 (See Padro (2015)\, Finn (2019))\, the warrant for the validity of MPP provided by entitlement of cognitive project must be something other than a pragmatic warrant.

First\, inquiry into a question rationally prohibits believing an answer to that question. Second\, knowledge is the aim of inquiry. I develop a series of cases which indicate that inquiry is not as narrow as these views suggest. These cases can be accommodated if we take a broader approach and understand inquiry as aiming at epistemic improvement\, described more generally. This approach captures a wider range of inquiring phenomena because it accounts for forms of epistemic improvement that fall short of\, or go beyond\, coming to know the answer to a question.

In contrast with apolitical social epistemology\, the epistemic injustice research program problematizes the roles of power and social identities in epistemic processes. Two of its core assumptions are: there is a reasonably neat separation between epistemic phenomena and ethical-political phenomena (even if they often intersect); while frequent\, occurrences of epistemic injustice are deviations from the norm that can be redressed鈥攅pistemic injustice is a bug\, not a feature.\n\nIn this talk\, I offer a critique of the epistemic injustice research program thus conceived\, drawing on broadly Foucauldian ideas on the relations between power and knowledge. I focus on the second assumption above\, specifically by revisiting Curry鈥檚 critique of Fricker鈥檚 and Medina鈥檚 respective analyses of聽To Kill a Mocking Bird\, and by presenting a similar critique of Lackey鈥檚 recent work on criminal testimonial injustice. In both cases\, the analyses of testimonial injustice as credibility deficit (Fricker and Medina) or as credibility excess (Lackey on confessions) miss the role and functions of these practices in perpetuating oppressive power structures (in these specific cases\, white supremacy). Thus seen\, epistemic injustice is a feature\, not a bug\, requiring much more than epistemic strategies to be redressed.
