The social construction you refer to does not qualify as reality in my view. That's issues such as "Is there milk in the fridge?"
I have often wished that I was a constructivist. Because then I could have dismissed knowledge relativists in my discipline as mere imagination. But sadly, I have had to accept them as an empirical reality.

@mrundkvist I'm not sure I understand. Are you saying that the definition of art is not a social construction or that the requirements of public bodies (laws?) are not social constructions? Rereading: Or that this type of social construction doesn't qualify as reality?
