The problem of expertise is an important topic in contemporary science studies and increasingly important in philosophy, political studies, and sociology. Drawing on a global range of case studies, this volume provides an alternative to the developing standard interpretations of the problem of expertise within sociology, broadening the frame of reference to ask critical questions regarding the political meaning of expertise and the political role of knowledge claims.
