A sociology of truth?

Pages 483-490 | Published online: 13 May 2011
 

Notes

1. Though there needs to be some care regarding exactly what is being accepted and rejected here, as is made clear by Bloor’s most recent defence of relativism (see Bloor Citation2007).

2. See Williams (Citation2002, 142–143). For criticism and further references, see Putnam (Citation2001).

3. This is also a blindspot in Young’s (Citation2008) retrospective account of changes in his position.

4. Young has acknowledged his role in the development of the ‘new sociology of education’, albeit rather modestly, in a recent interview (Young Citation2007).

5. The student movement of the late 1960s is mentioned four times, but its implications are never explored.

6. Equally problematic because ‘belief’ tends to imply falsity or at least a speculative character.
