Perhaps the most meta of the sociology fields, this is the study of how societies and cultures collectively decide what counts as "knowledge" in the first place. It doesn't ask what we know, but how we know that we know. It explores why a medieval peasant's epistemology (revelation, tradition) is different from a modern scientist's (empiricism, peer review), and treats both as social products of their time. It's the sociology of how truth itself is manufactured.
