Competing Knowledges - Wissen im Widerstreit

Author / Organization:
Humanities & Social Sciences Published 2020 Verification Pending

Overview & Synopsis

Whatever societies accept as ‘knowledge’ is embedded in epistemological, institutional, political, and economic power relations. How is knowledge produced under such circumstances? What is the difference between general knowledge and the sciences? Can there be science without universal truth claims? Questions like these are discussed in eleven essays from the perspective of Sociology, Law, Cultural Studies, and the Humanities.
