Abstract
Paul Ott offers three related arguments that Robert Talisse's epistemic conception of democracy fails. Together, they are intended to support the proposition that a Deweyan approach to democracy provides a better explanatory basis for how to facilitate democracy. I argue that each argument provided by Ott fails. As a result, they do not reflect a successful critique of the Talisse's conception of democracy. Nor do they provide support for Ott's defense of Dewey. I close by offering a more promising line of criticism against Talisse's epistemic justification.
