Mathematisation of Human Sciences-Epistemological Sanskritisation

Sanskritisation is evident in the epistemological realm of the human sciences also. The excessive preoccupation with mathematics in particular, essentially suggests the attempt by the human sciences to climb the epistemological ladder. Use of charts, graphs, prediction methods help in validating the subject's claim to truth. But the increasing tendency of the human sciences to seek legitimacy through such ritualisation process also reflects its paucity to accept other modes of thinking.
