Foundationalism for Modest Infinitists

Turri, J. (2010). Foundationalism for modest infinitists. Canadian Journal of Philosophy, 40(2), 275–284.

Infinitists argue that their view outshines foundationalism because infinitism can, whereas foundationalism cannot, explain two of epistemic justification’s crucial features: it comes in degrees and it can be complete. I present four different ways that foundationalists could make sense of those two features of justification, thereby undermining the case for infinitism.
