Lohse, S.; Bschir, K.: The COVID-19 pandemic: a case for epistemic pluralism in public health policy. In: History and Philosophy of the Life Sciences 42 (2020), Nr. 4, 58. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1007/s40656-020-00353-8
This paper uses the example of the COVID-19 pandemic to analyse the danger associated with insufficient epistemic pluralism in evidence-based public health policy. Drawing on certain elements in Paul Feyerabend’s political philosophy of science, it discusses reasons for implementing more pluralism as well as challenges to be tackled on the way forward.
