Epistemic Relativism in the Social Sciences

Being that I don't want to spam this Blog with two very long essays at the same time, I posted this one on my live journal: Epistemic Relativism in the Social Sciences. As the preamble mentions, the formatting is a bit wonkey right now, and for that I apologize!

Enjoy.
