dc.description.abstractIn this thesis I will examine the relationship between science denialism and (a multi criterial approach to the demarcation of science from) pseudoscience. I will first explain science denialism and its relevant epistemological and sociological characteristics. After this I will go into the anti-vaccination movement as a concrete form of science denialism, in order to later utilize the stories told there as a case study for the comparison between science denialism and pseudoscience. In the end I will show how closely related pseudoscience and science denialism are, and how science denialism can even be seen as a form of pseudoscience.en_US
