More recently, I have been working on investigating how Plato engages in a kind of social epistemology by attempting to develop philosophy as a process of social knowledge-building (both ontological and moral knowledge) in his dialogues. The focus of this work is Plato's dialogue 'Phaedrus', which I regard as a primary text for understanding Plato's social epistemology.
