In this lecture, Isaac Ariail Reed will suggest some ways for thinking about theory, truth, over- and underinterpretation in the human sciences.The social sciences have always grappled, in one way or another, with the problem of humans studying humans.
Particularly pressing in this regard has been the use of theories to explain, elaborate on, answer questions about, or criticize various practices, institutions, organizations, that persons under study engage in.
Reframing sociology as part of the project of the human sciences, and elaborating on a distinction between minimal and maximal interpretation, this talk will suggest some ways for thinking about theory, truth, over- and underinterpretation in the human sciences.
