The Limits of Expertise
What is this about?
Alphonse recently finished a study about wages and cooperation in food processing industry. The state which funded her research called on her to testify about safety standards and practices in the industry. As Alphonse did not explicitly ask her sources about safety, she is not sure whether she has enough expertise about the matter to testify and whether she could protect her sources while doing so.
