My brother accused me of being a moral relativist.

Many people interpreted Dr. Latour’s position as relativist — as asserting that there was no such thing as objective truth.

I have never in my long career of chronicling major American social movements seen a successful one that used relativist language.

A relativist would respond to this argument by saying that there is no reason to think that scientists were getting better at measuring the speed of light; they were simply getting better at agreeing on how to measure the speed of light.

If the relativist account of science were correct, every major paradigm shift ought to be accompanied by bitter disputes between competing intellectual communities: indeed it was Kuhn’s view that this is exactly what happens.
