Zusammenfassung:In his comment on the articles by M. B. Smith (see record 1994-37277-001) and K. J. Gergen (see record 1994-37275-001), D. Mente explores Smith's charge of relativism and the positions of Gergen, N. Goodman (1984), P. Feyerabend (1987), and R. Rorty (1991). Concerning Smith's wish to sustain the struggle toward truth, goodness, and beauty as meaningful ideals, Mente concludes that Smith must realize that the inevitable questions are Whose truth? Whose goodness? Whose beauty? (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2020 APA, all rights reserved)
