The Berlin Studies in Knowledge Research (BSKR) series aims to foster systematic research into
the variety of forms of knowledge as well as to uncover aspects of their underlying unity. The
conception of the discipline of epistemology it seeks to promote is a generous-one which
encompasses a study of the full variety of forms practices and dynamics of knowledge as well
as their mutually interacting points of contact and their respective mechanisms of
interpenetration. It seeks thereby to bring about a reorientation of the discipline of
epistemology undoing artificial restrictions in its scope and achieving a greater appreciation
of the heterogeneity of different forms of knowledge. The series BSKR is associated with the
Innovationszentrum Wissensforschung (IZW) Center for Knowledge Research at the TU Berlin
Germany.
