title = {The Truth in Relation},
year = {2019},
note = {The article deals with the understanding and practices of the truth of
the Lamaholot-speaking people in East-Flores, Indonesia. This
traditional group of people does not have a theoretical understanding
of truth. Analyzing sayings, social structure, and rituals of these
people the author demonstrates that the truth as understood and
practiced by the Lamaholot-speaking people is contextual. Truth is not
absolute, neither relativistic. It depends on the context. Every
person is expected to know what is right for him/her in a given
situation and to act accordingly. Cultural sensitivity is a necessary
condition to accept people’s understanding and practice of truth.},
