Wittgensteinian Hinge Epistemology and Deep Disagreement [PDF]
Topoi, 2018 Deep disagreements concern our most basic and fundamental commitments. Such disagreements seem to be problematic because they appear to manifest epistemic incommensurability in our epistemic systems, and thereby lead to epistemic relativism. This problem is confronted via consideration of a Wittgensteinian hinge epistemology.

Strange bedfellows: on Pritchard’s disjunctivist hinge epistemology [PDF]
