Relativism, an ancient philosophical doctrine, is once again a
topic of heated debate. In this book, Maria Baghramian and Annalisa
Coliva present the recent arguments for and against various forms
of relativism. The first two chapters introduce the conceptual and
historical contours of relativism. These are followed by critical
investigations of relativism about truth, conceptual relativism,
epistemic relativism, and moral relativism. The concluding chapter
asks whether it is possible to make sense of relativism as a
philosophical thesis. The book introduces readers to the main types
of relativism and the arguments in their favor. It also goes beyond
the expository material to engage in more detailed critical
responses to the key positions and authors under discussion.
Including chapter summaries, suggestions for further reading, and a
glossary, Relativism is essential reading for students of
philosophy as well as those in related disciplines where relativism
is studied, such as anthropology, sociology, and politics.
