What if anything justifies us in believing the testimony of others? How should we
react to disagreement between ourselves and our peers, and to disagreement among the
experts when we ourselves are novices? Can beliefs be held by groups of people in
addition to the people composing those groups? And if so, how should groups go about
forming their beliefs? How should we design social systems, such as legal juries and
scientific research-sharing schemes, to promote knowledge among the people who engage
in them? When different groups of people judge different beliefs to be justified,
how can we te.
