In a similar vein, Is it has been asked whether it is possible to reduce the communal mosaic to a function of the mosaics of individuals?

[[Barseghyan (2015)]] discusses and rejects two views that relate the individual and the social: the '''Elitist'elitist'' and '''Majoritist'majoritarianist'' views. The Elitist elitist view holds that the mosaic of a scientific community comes to reflect the individual scientific mosaic of prominent scientists and figureheads in the community. The Majoritist majoritarianist view holds that the mosaic of the community reflects the mosaic that a majority of individuals themselves hold.[[CiteRef::Barseghyan (2015)|Parent Topic=Epistemic Agentspp. 48-51]]|Authors List=Paul Patton, Ameer Sarwar, Patrick Fraser, Calahan Janik-Jones,Patrick Fraser, Paul Patton
