 THE SOCIOLOGY OF KNOWLEDGE
Perhaps no where is this imagination so exercised than in the sociology of knowledge, which studies the social sources and social consequences of knowledge--how, for instance, social organization shapes both the content and structure of knowledge or how various social, cultural, political conditions shield people from truth.
It has been argued that the concept of knowledge is to sociology as the notion of attitude is to psychology: a notion so central that, in many ways, it is the foundation for the entire discipline.
Here the sociology of knowledge examines the relationships between mental phenomena and social organization--how, for example, the oppressed are exploited through "false consciousness," how "groupthink" dynamics stifle the creativity of decision-makers, and how ideologies and stereotypes shape what is perceived.

Participants at the meeting concluded that there could be no defensible consensus as to a body of knowledge for landscape architects without systematic research to ensure that the study acknowledged the breadth of the profession.
Each of the knowledge statements had three rating scales: time of acquisition, the level at which the knowledge should be acquired at completion of a first professional degree, and the level at which this knowledge should be attained before an individual takes professional responsibility for his or her landscape architecture work.
