This conference is dedicated to the study of the epistemic vices. The last couple of decades have been enormous interest in the epistemic virtues and a growing literature now exists devoted to describing their description\, definition\, and application to specific areas of our social and epistemic life. But the &lsquo\;vices of the mind&rsquo\; are by contrast rather neglected\, even though they feature regularly in our everyday and public discourse. This conference is therefore dedicated to the epistemic vices: what are they? How are they related to the virtues? What makes them objectionable or negative? Does the status of a character trait as a vice depend on context? How might the study of epistemic vices be illuminated by psychology? Is there a history of the epistemic vices? Can collectives as well as agents be epistemically vicious? We welcome papers on any aspect of epistemic vice. \;
\nThis conference will be consistent with the BPA-SWIP Good Practice Scheme.
