摘要
This paper is about an anti-expertise paradox that arises because of self-referential sentences like: (*) = I do not believe that (*) is true. The first aim is to motivate, develop, and defend a novel view of epistemic rationality according to which there can be genuine rational indeterminacy, i.e., it can be indeterminate which doxastic states an agent is rationally permitted or required to have. The second aim is to show how this view can provide a solution to this paradox while also avoiding the problems that plague its rivals.
