problem with structure

"This criticism of social constructionism not recognising an objective reality is both widespread and common (Bury 1986; Burr 1995; Craib 1997; Schwandt, 2003; Sismondo 1993), that nothing exists beyond language (Bury 1986)."

I think there is something wrong with the structure of the above sentence, namely the last clause.

Could you please give me your view?

Thank you

Hi It''s OK. I might write ... - This criticism of social constructionism, that it does not recognise an objective reality, is both widespread and common: nothing exists beyond language (Bury 1986, Sismondo 1993, Burr 1995, Craib 1997, Schwandt 2003).

Having said that, even if Bury, Sismondo, Burr, Craib and Schwandt think that nothing exists beyond language, how widespread or common is that view, actually?
