Relativity, Complemetarity, and Uncertainty
Author(s)Uphoff, Norman
AbstractUphoff states that, in the social world, the search for truth is often clouded and thus epistemological strategies must be suited to a world that is ontologically uncertain. He compares the social science’s search for truth to physics and warns against the allure of reductionist thinking in the social sciences.
