The legacy of the value-free ideal of science
Oreskes Naomi (2022) Science on a Mission
Materializing values
In contrast to the history of science and to science and technology studies, the value discourse in the philosophy of science has not provided a thorough analysis of the material culture of science. Instruments in science have a special characteristic, namely that they explicitly and clearly emerge from and remain embedded in social contexts, and are thus imbued with values. We argue that the materials (in most cases they are artifacts) used in s…
The good, the bad and the lab
Critical perspectives on science
Science, as a body of knowledge, process or an interactive network of individuals and institutions, is a central component of contemporary society. This privileged position attracts some potential dangers of over-reaching, analysed by a variety of commentators. Central to these discussions is the importance and relevance of values to the practice of science. Far from being ‘value-free’, science takes place in a social environment that brings its …
The Socio-Ethical Dimension of Knowledge
The Constitution of geistige Gegenstände in Carnap’s Aufbau and the Importance of Hans Freyer
The aim of this paper is twofold: to consider Rudolf Carnap’s ideas about the so-called geistige Gegenstände – i.e., the products of the human mind – in his Der logische Aufbau der Welt (1928) and to discuss these ideas in the context of Hans Freyer’s philosophy. I will argue that if one takes a look at Hans Freyer’s Theorie des Objektiven Geistes (1923) and Carnap’s Aufbau , the similarities are quite striking. Taking into account their shared e…
History of Understanding in Analytic Philosophy
"Interpretive understanding of human behaviour, known as verstehen, underpins the divide between the social sciences and the natural sciences. Taking a historically orientated approach, this collection offers a fresh take on the development of understanding within analytic philosophy before, during and after logical empiricism. In doing so, it reinvigorates debates on the role of the social sciences within contemporary epistemology. Bringing toge…
Science, Freedom, Democracy
The liberation of nature and knowledge
Our main goal in this paper is to present and scrutinize Reichenbach’s own naturalism in our contemporary context, with special attention to competing versions of the concept. By exploring the idea of Reichenbach’s naturalism, we will argue that he defended a liberating, therapeutic form of naturalism , meaning that he took scientific philosophy (or philosophy of nature, Naturphilosophie ) to be a possible cure for bad old habits and traditional …
Socio-Ethical Dimension of Knowledge
A cricket game, a train ticket and a vacuum to be filled
In 1948, A.J. Ayer was attacked on the pages of The New Statesman and Nation magazine where it was claimed that his views were partly responsible for increasingly Fascist attitudes at Oxford. Ayer was charged with promoting a philosophy of values (or one lacking therein) that allowed Fascism to fill the moral vacuum. Ayer noted that he knew who had written the article (and the ones that followed) and that this person had done so for entirely cont…
