Coloniality and Analytic Moral Epistemology in the Twentieth Century.

The article examines the colonial biases inherent in analytic moral epistemology, particularly through the works of Richard M. Hare and John Rawls, as part of a broader effort to decolonize Anglophone academic philosophy. It argues that the foundational assumptions of these philosophers perpetuate colonial domination by disregarding the cultural contexts of moral reasoning and promoting a singular model of practical reasoning that fails to account for diverse moral communities. The authors advocate for a decolonized moral epistemology that embraces moral and epistemic humility, recognizing the need for democratic discourse and the inclusion of marginalized perspectives in philosophical discussions. The article ultimately calls for a reevaluation of the authority to define moral reasoning within a neocolonial framework. [Extracted from the article]
