https://www.argumenta.org/article/conspiracy-theorists-monological-belief-systems-special-issue/
ABSTRACT of Article: Recent scholarship has claimed to show that conspiracy theorists are prone to simultaneously believe mutually contradictory conspiracy theories, as well as believe entirely made up conspiracy theories. The authors of those studies suggest that this supports the notion that conspiracy theories operate within “monological belief systems”, in which conspiracy theorists find support for conspiratorial beliefs in other conspiratorial beliefs, or in related generalizations, rather than in eviden...2022-11-1823 minLet's Get Philosophical: Critical Reflections on Conspiracy Theory TheoryConspiracy Theorists and Monological Belief Systems, Part 1: “Conspiracy Theorists Believe Mutually Contradictory Theories,” and Other Misleading Academic MemesThis podcast episode is a modified portion of an article entitled, “Conspiracy Theorists and Monological Belief Systems,” published in an open-access online academic philosophy journal called Argumenta, in 2018, by Kurtis Hagen.

A Response to Harris’s Probabilistic Modus Tollens Argument.This is a modified portion of an article entitled, “Is Conspiracy Theorizing Really Epistemically Problematic?” published in the journal Episteme in 2020, by Kurtis Hagen. That article is a response to a set of critiques of conspiracy theorizing put forward by philosopher Keith Harris. This podcast episode focuses on just one of those critiques. Namely, Harris argues that conspiracy theorizing problematically relies on a probabilistic version of a formal argument structure known as “modus tollens.” Hagen argues that Harris's critique fails to show that there is anything epistemically problematic in conspiracy theorizing.

Abstract of the article: Critics of conspiracy theories often charge that such theories are implausible because conspiracies of the kind they allege tend to fail.

So, they reason, they probably are not. In this...2022-03-0518 min

A Critique of Quassim Cassam’s Concept of Conspiracy TheoriesThis is an abbreviated, and slightly modified, reading of the article, “Are ‘Conspiracy Theories’ So Unlikely to be True? A Critique of Quassim Cassam’s Concept of ‘Conspiracy Theories’,” published in the journal Social Epistemology in 2022, by Kurtis Hagen.
ABSTRACT: The philosopher Quassim Cassam has described a concept called “Conspiracy Theories” (capitalized) that includes several “special features” that distinguish such theories from other theories positing conspiracies. Conspiracy Theories, he argues, are unlikely to be true. Indeed, he implies that they are, as a class of ideas, so unlikely to be true that we are justified in responding to them by criticizing...2022-02-1922 minThe Podcaster's Guide to the ConspiracyConspiracy Theories and Stylized Facts (Conspiracy Theory Masterpiece Theatre)Josh and M review Kurtis Hagen's "Conspiracy Theories and Stylized Facts" from the Journal for Peace and Justice Studies, vol. 21 number 2, 2011.
