Epistemic closure is the idea that knowledge is self-contained and independent of experience. This means that all knowledge can be derived from other knowledge, without any need to refer to the outside world.

The problem of individualism is the idea that individuals are the only source of knowledge. This means that all knowledge is subjective and there is no such thing as objective knowledge.

Epistemic closure leads to the problem of individualism because if all knowledge is self-contained and independent of experience, then it follows that individuals are the only source of knowledge.

There are a number of arguments against epistemic closure, including the argument from experience, the argument from intersubjectivity, and the argument from fallibility. The argument from experience argues that we cannot know anything for certain because our experience is always limited and incomplete. The argument from intersubjectivity argues that we cannot know anything for certain because our knowledge is always mediated by our interactions with others. The argument from fallibility argues that we cannot know anything for certain because we are all fallible creatures.

There are a number of arguments against the problem of individualism, including the argument from sociality, the argument from language, and the argument from culture. The argument from sociality argues that we are social creatures and that our knowledge is shaped by our interactions with others. The argument from language argues that language is a social phenomenon and that it is impossible to have knowledge without language. The argument from culture argues that culture is a social phenomenon and that it is impossible to have knowledge without culture.

It is not clear whether it is possible to overcome epistemic closure and the problem of individualism. Some philosophers believe that it is possible, while others believe that it is not. There is no easy answer to this question.
