Abstract
- In this paper, I introduce a special case of epistemic injustice that I call 'structural contributory injustice'. This conception aims to capture some dimensions of how policy—separately from individual agential interactions—can generate epistemic injustice at a group level. I first locate the case within Kristie Dotson's original conception of contributory injustice. I then consider one potential case of structural contributory injustice—namely, the policy problem of significant financial risk burden on students considering university in the USA. Finally, I consider potential policy reforms in response to this injustice. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
