Truth is not "relative" and certainly not "subjective" in the popular sense of the word. It is always, or almost always, completely determined within a thought style.
...
Truth is not a convention, but rather (1) in historical perspective, an event in the history of thought, (2) in its contemporary context, stylized thought constraint.

The relationship to thought constraint sounds interesting. Also, we can probably model it as a topos of dynamical systems.
