GUERRERO MC MANUS, Siobhan. Epistemic Injustices and Environmental Crisis. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2021, vol.42, n.90, pp.179-204.  Epub 31-Jan-2021. ISSN 2007-9176.  https://doi.org/10.28928/ri/902021/aot2/guerreromcmanuss.

This paper aims to bring together the topic of epistemic injustices, so far developed within the field of social epistemology, with a collection of challenges associated with the contemporary environmental crisis, especially those aspects more related to knowledge. The term of epistemic injustice was originally coined by the philosopher Miranda Fricker and has given rise to a fruitful field of studies that scrutinizes how the different social positions of the individuals that make up a society place them in epistemologically asymmetric situations that can generate unfair dynamics such as a disregard for the testimonies of certain social strata. However, this field of inquiry has paid too much attention to the identities of concrete individuals and, thus, it has neglected collective dynamics and contextual aspects such as those related to the environment. It is precisely the objective of this text to overcome these limitations.

Palavras-chave : Hermeneutic Injustice; Testimonial Injustice; Narratives; Environmental Thought; Queer Ecology.
