“On further reading, I realised that while mapping represents reality, it also affects how we construct this reality”
Isn’t this Sapir-Worff all over again? The obvious hazard is that the thesis flatters the ego of the specialist, by elevating their specialty above all others.
And more generally this reads like the product of an academic culture that has become insular and fallen in love with its own toolkit of jargon.
