O knihe

The Sokal affair was an experiment by physicist Alan Sokal perpetrated on the editorial staff and readership of the postmodern cultural studies journal Social Text. In 1996, Sokal, a professor of physics at New York University, submitted a paper for publication in Social Text, as an experiment to see if a journal in that field would, in Sokal's words: 'publish an article liberally salted with nonsense if it sounded good and it flattered the editors' ideological preconceptions.' The paper argued that quantum gravity is a social and linguistic construct.
