Synopsis: Since the 1960s, the emerging discipline of metaphilosophy has been burdened by the problem of the philosophical preconditioning of metaphilosophical theories. This issue is addressed through the epistemological framework of perspectivism. It is demonstrated that a profound understanding of perspectivity can positively influence the quality of metaphilosophical research, whose unity is only possible under the idea of a discourse oriented toward cross-perspective integration from the outset.
