The sociology of scientific knowledge (SSK) is a recognised school of loosely allied thinkers including Gaston Bachelard, Thomas Kuhn, Paul Feyerabend, Bruno Latour and David Bloor. These thinkers (mainly sociologists or philosophers) consider social influences on science. It is argued by some of them that social factors may be as important as, or more important than, the rational or empirical factors normally considered to be paramount, in deciding whether a theory is true or not.
