Social Epistemology: A Journal of Knowledge, Culture and Policy is a quarterly academic journal. The journal was established in 1987 and is published by Routledge in collaboration with The Society for Social Studies of Science and the European Association for the Study of Science and Technology. Social Epistemology provides a forum for philosophical and social scientific inquiry that incorporates the work of scholars from a variety of disciplines who share a concern with the production, assessment and validation of knowledge. The journal covers both empirical research into the origination and transmission of knowledge and normative considerations which arise as such research is implemented, serving as a guide for directing contemporary knowledge enterprises.
