Social Relativism

Social relativism is the idea that our understanding of truth, morality, and knowledge is shaped by cultural and social contexts. It suggests that what is considered "true" or "right" can vary between different societies, influenced by factors like traditions, beliefs, and experiences. This perspective emphasizes that there are no absolute truths that apply universally to all people. Within constructivism, social relativism suggests that individuals construct their understanding of the world based on social interactions, highlighting the importance of context in shaping our views and values.
