 This characterization of relativism is called “replacement” relativism because it is effectively endorsing a replacing of unqualified epistemic claims with explicitly relational ones that make implicit epistemic standards explicit. This is precisely the kind of endorsement Boghossian thinks Richard Rorty is encouraging, in suggesting that, e.g., Galileo and Bellarmine are each right about the cosmos—Galileo about heliocentrism, Bellarmine about geocentrism—according to the different “epistemic grids” each accepts (Rorty 1979: 330).
