Knowledge relativity

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In philosophy, knowledge relativity is the notion that knowledge can be seen as the relation between a form of representation with up to two sorts of intent – communication and use goals – and with up to three subjects – one who knows, one who is informed, and one who observes and confirms.

This relational and subject-oriented view of knowledge is an alternative to the objectivist truth-based view common in logic.
