- Positivism: Only verifiable (and refutable) scientific inferences are "knowledge". All the rest is emotion and psychology.
- Interpretivism: The social sciences are the realms of "non positivist" knowledge, and are not subject to simplistic scientific verifications/refutations.
- PostModernism: All knowledge has social infrastructure. One cannot disentangle them completely. So what constitutes knowledge is socially constructed, and not "impartial" or "objective".
