  • Arne Heise

摘要

This chapter explains the terms ‘pluralism’ and ‘heterodoxy’ and highlights their ambiguity. It is important to distinguish between different forms of pluralism and to separate paradigmatic pluralism from variations within a paradigm. Moreover, it is crucial to define heterodoxy so clearly that a well-founded, but also practical distinction of different paradigms can be provided.
