Hi all. I 'm not sure that objectivity and subjectivity per se constitute a real divide. As Woody Allen says in Love and Death "objectivity is subjective." He was right on. Both fields are fraught with all kinds of subjectivities and few in either discipline really buy into a notion of true objectivity any longer. The crisis in the humanities and social sciences over the past two decades has been how to reinvent one's self now that objectivity has been debunked.
