which of those readings do you wish to reccommend, and does evolutionary epistemology or cognitive science fit into any of this?
My practical experience is that i have been in close contact with much of the downtrodden in our society (as their landlord or college bio instructor), and i have come to increasingly see that it is not all the fault or our "racist, elitist, capitalist, godless, whatever" society but rather that thing called "personal responsibility" applies to the top and bottom of the socioeconomic stew every bit as much as it applies to the guy that jumps into the cold, murky water without having turned his computer on, put his fins on, or turned his air on ;-)
oh yes, who's truth, who's justice, and who's American way might we be talking about?
