They also critique the existing theoretical foundations of Forensic Architecture, arguing that while its Science and Technology Studies (STS) perspective successfully challenges dominant regimes of truth and centres marginalised voices, it provides insufficient criteria for evaluating the methodological reliability of individual investigations.
