From Wiktionary, the free dictionary

epistemic regime (plural epistemic regimes)

  1. Any pattern or system (including any ideology, philosophy, religion, science, or tradition, as well as coexistent combinations thereof) by which people know or believe (or believe that they know) the things that they know or believe (including any ontologic or cosmologic facts, theories, hypotheses, catechistic items of faith, or other items of faith).
    Holonyms: reality, world, World, universe, Universe
    Meronyms: science, research; ideology, philosophy; tradition, received wisdom; ethics, morality; theology, theism, theosophy, religion; credo, creed; agnosticism, atheism, antitheism, apatheism, igtheism < belief system
    Near-synonyms: epistemology, epistemics; cosmology, ontology

    The terms epistemology and epistemic regime aren't as complex or abstruse as people might imagine; both address the overlapping questions of "how people know what they know" and "why people believe what they believe." Epistemology is both the study of those questions and the answers found by such study (both senses are common), and epistemic regimes are the contexts that shape those answers.
