'Trust has been so eroded': Philosopher Miranda Fricker on epistemic injustice today

From the show

A world-renowned philosopher has told FRANCE 24 she's still shocked that 20 years after she coined the phrase "epistemic injustice", she is still talking about it. Miranda Fricker is now Julius Silver Professor of Philosophy at New York University and co-director of the New York Institute of Philosophy. She's also a fellow of the British Academy and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. She's in Paris for a two-day conference at Sciences Po University on discursive practices, that is the way people use language, symbols, stories and the media to influence political events. In Perspective, she spoke to us about the latest theories and how they relate to the fake news environment of today.
