RIVERA-NOVOA, ÁNGEL. RELATIVISM WITHOUT CONCEPTUAL SCHEMES. Ideas y Valores [online]. 2020, vol.69, n.173, pp.77-102. Epub 12-Nov-2020. ISSN 0120-0062. https://doi.org/10.15446/ideasyvalores.v69n173.63132.
The article defends a conceptual relativism without conceptual schemes. First, it presents Davidson's critique of conceptual relativism. Ten, it goes on to build a counterexample questioning the efficacy of the principle of charity, and argues that upholding holism in order to avoid relativism would entail accepting a moderate relativism that distinguishes between a background of belief and internal networks of beliefs. This relativism is compatible with abandoning the idea of a conceptual scheme, and, therefore, does not imply any type of incommensurability or untranslatability.
