From Blue Sky Research to Problem Solving: A Philosophy of Science Theory of New Knowledge Production
研究了科学哲学话语中发展出的理性逻辑对新知识组织的影响,讨论了不同哲学流派(如结构实在论、工具主义、问题解决等)提供的动机词汇、推理框架和实践指南。
We examine rationalized logics developed within discourses of the philosophy of science for implications for the organization of new knowledge. These logics, derived from a range of philosophies (structural realism, instrumentalism, problem solving, foundationalism, critical realism) offer alternative vocabularies of motive, frameworks for reasoning, and guidelines for practice. We discuss the kinds of knowledge produced, the indicators of progress, the characteristic methods, exemplar organizations, and ways in which logics are combined and diffused.
