建立信任在认识论中被隐含地描述为需要采用共同的信念。如果真是这样,那么这种建立信任的模式似乎与对多元现实主义的形而上学承诺不一致。在本文中,我提供了建模多元现实主义者如何理解信任建立的第一步。我认为,将多元现实主义视为一种可能性实际上可能比一元论概念更有利于建立信任,因为每一方都得到了一个重要的让步:他们的知识主张可能是正确的。加拿大北极地区的北极熊保护案例表明,无需共同信念即可建立信任。我祝愿这些圆桌讨论的成员们今后取得成功。
Trust-building has implicitly been characterized in epistemology as necessitating the adoption of shared belief. If this is so, such models of trust-building appear at odds with a metaphysical commitment to pluralist realism. In this article I offer the first steps in modeling how a pluralist realist might understand trust building. I argue that entertaining pluralist realism as a possibility may actually be more fruitful for trust building than a monist conception because each side is given an important concession: the possibility that their knowledge claims might be correct. The case of polar bear conservation in the Canadian arctic illustrates that trust-building without shared belief is possible. I wish the members of these round-table discussions success in the future.
