Abstract

This commentary is structured around two different definitions for the concept of relativism. The contention is that a great deal depends on the particular interpretation one gives to this concept - not only for understanding the particular positions elaborated in these papers, but also for a general understanding of the issue of justifying conclusions in evaluations. © 1987.
