The Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Relativism

An outstanding major reference source on this fundamental topic. Essential reading for students and researchers in all branches of philosophy, and also of interest to those in related subjects such as politics, religion, sociology, cultural studies and literature.

Relativism can be found in all philosophical traditions and subfields of philosophy. It is also a central idea in the social sciences, the humanities, religion and politics. This is the first volume to map relativistic motifs in all areas of philosophy, synchronically and diachronically. It thereby provides essential intellectual tools for thinking about contemporary issues like cultural diversity, the plurality of the sciences, or the scope of moral values.
