Ecological Thinking: The politics of Epistemic Location, Lorraine Code proposes naturalized epistemology to effect nothing less than an epistemological sea change equivalent to Kant’s “Copernican revolution.”1 We recall that Kant disagreed with the underlying core epistemological principle shared by his modernist contemporaries’ competing rationalist and empiricist theories: that knowledge conforms to the nature of objects
Her revision of Kantian epistemology—what she claims has become the dominant epistemology of modern times, through which knowledge is deemed worthy of the name exclusively on its empirical-scientistic justificatory status—includes reforming the hegemonous instituted social imaginary which sustains and is sustained by Kant’s master narrative and its knowers, into an instituting social imaginary of ecological thinking
