Absolute truth Quote by Karl Mannheim
“A modern theory of knowledge which takes account of the relational as distinct from the merely relative character of all historical knowledge must start with the assumption that there are spheres of thought in which it is impossible to conceive of absolute truth existing independently of the values and position of the subject and unrelated to the social context.”
![“[W]hen the empirical investigator glories in his refusal to go beyond the specialized observation dictated by the traditions of his discipline, be they ever so inclusive, he is making a virtue out of a defense mechanism which insures him against questioning his presuppositions.” quote by Karl Mannheim](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/c7d/karl-mannheim-40736_belief_w-hen-the-empirical-investigator-glories_2795607.jpg)
