This book approaches post-truth and relativism in a
multidisciplinary fashion. Researchers from astrophysics,
philosophy, psychology, media studies, religious studies,
anthropology, social epistemology and sociology discuss and analyse
the impact of relativism and post-truth both within the academy and
in society at large. The motivation for this multidisciplinary
approach is that relativism and post-truth are multifaceted
phenomena with complex histories that have played out differently
in different areas of society and different academic disciplines.
There is hence a multitude of ways in which to use and understand
the concepts and the phenomena to which they refer, and a multitude
of critiques and defenses as well. No single volume can capture the
ongoing discussions in different areas in all their complexity, but
the different chapters of the book can function as exemplifications
of the ramifications these phenomena have had.
