Book Ciencias y sociedad

Download or read book Ciencias y sociedad written by Vinck, Dominique and published by Editorial GEDISA. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las ciencias y las técnicas han formado parte, desde el principio de la civilización, del desarrollo de la sociedad. Los cambios que han caracterizado las diferentes etapas del pensamiento científico se han producido dentro del marco de determinadas formaciones sociales y en condiciones específicas de producción del conocimiento. En este libro se aborda la manera en que se relacionan ciencia y sociedad: las formas de valorización social de las investigaciones, el sistema de trabajo en el interior de los laboratorios, las razones ideológicas de las teorías científicas, los mecanismos de financiación de la indagaciones científicas, las luchas jerárquicas entre los sabios y académicos, etc. Un conjunto de problemas que están más que nunca implicados en nuestros grandes problemas sociales. La explosión de las nanotecnologías, la controversia sobre los OGM, el cambio climático, etc., tantas temáticas cuya comprensión y control implican también conocer mejor las dinámicas sociales que forman parte de la producción de conocimientos y de las innovaciones. La presente obra, refundición de Sociología de las ciencias, publicada en 1995, muestra un planteamiento completo de todos estos problemas, con numerosos ejemplos y una muy amplia documentación. Presenta las diferentes formas de articulación ciencia/sociedad (emergencia de las ciencias, dinámica de innovación y democracia técnica) y los principales mecanismos sociales que hacen vivir a las ciencias (instituciones, organizaciones, intercambios entre investigadores, elaboración de contenidos, etc.). Este libro permite aprehender tanto la cultura material y cognitiva de un laboratorio como el funcionamiento del mercado de empleo científico. Más allá de la referencia a los grandes autores, corrientes de pensamiento y debates, ayuda a comprender mejor qué la sociedad y aquellas personas que tiene el poder decisorio fuerzan el desarrollo de las ciencias y de las técnicas, y qué los artesanos de estas últimas imponen a cambio sus lógicas propias. Habla así sobre la sociología de "la sociedad de los conocimientos”.

Book Science in Latin America

  • Publisher : University of Texas Press
  • Release : 2009-06-03
  • ISBN : 0292774753
  • Pages : 265 pages

Download or read book Science in Latin America written by Juan José Saldaña and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2009-06-03 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Science in Latin America has roots that reach back to the information gathering and recording practices of the Maya, Aztec, and Inca civilizations. Spanish and Portuguese conquerors and colonists introduced European scientific practices to the continent, where they hybridized with local traditions to form the beginnings of a truly Latin American science. As countries achieved their independence in the nineteenth century, they turned to science as a vehicle for modernizing education and forwarding "progress." In the twentieth century, science and technology became as omnipresent in Latin America as in the United States and Europe. Yet despite a history that stretches across five centuries, science in Latin America has traditionally been viewed as derivative of and peripheral to Euro-American science. To correct that mistaken view, this book provides the first comprehensive overview of the history of science in Latin America from the sixteenth century to the present. Eleven leading Latin American historians assess the part that science played in Latin American society during the colonial, independence, national, and modern eras, investigating science's role in such areas as natural history, medicine and public health, the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, politics and nation-building, educational reform, and contemporary academic research. The comparative approach of the essays creates a continent-spanning picture of Latin American science that clearly establishes its autonomous history and its right to be studied within a Latin American context.

Book excerpt: Si la ciencia es una respuesta del hombre frente a la realidad, ¿actualmente responde a sus verdaderas necesidades como especie mejorando su capacidad de adaptación y su relación con el entorno? ¿Por qué y para qué nació el Método Científico? ¿Acaso su origen no dependió de la "actitud reflexiva" de los científicos-filósofos que lo fueron pergeñando con el objetivo de minimizar la subjetividad de toda versión humana? ¿Tanto la ciencia como su método, mediante los procesos que aplican (aislamiento, atomización, modelización, matematización), están en condiciones de abordar una realidad atravesada y caracterizada por la "complejidad" que se caracteriza por la trascendencia que tienen las relaciones y vínculos entre los fenómenos y sus componentes? Crítica a la ciencia propone preguntas que no solo abren un espacio de debate acerca de una de las disciplinas humanas más importantes sino que, además, nos obligan a plantearnos, con valentía, que quizás nuestra querida Ciencia actualmente responde más a una "pseudo-realidad" encuadrada en los parámetros de un mercado pragmático y materialista cuya prioridad es generar y estimular las necesidades de aquellos grupos de seres humanos con más posibilidades de consumir. Y nos ofrece, a modo de respuesta tentativa, la hipótesis de que, quizás, sea necesario cuestionar el "paradigma cuantitativo", actualmente vigente, útil y funcional solo para algunos pocos, frente al "paradigma cualitativo", necesario para todos. Ricardo A. Carpani es Médico clínico, nefrólogo y especialista en hipertensión arterial. Egresado de la UBA. Se dedicó toda su vida profesional al ejercicio de la medicina asistencial, tanto hospitalaria como institucional y académica, lo que le permitió alcanzar una visión abarcativa de esta ciencia aplicada.

This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Early modern European thought held that men and women were essentially the same. During the seventeenth century, medical and legal arguments began to turn against this ‘one-sex’ model, with hermaphroditism seen as a medieval superstition.

Book Beyond Borders

    Book Details:
  • Author : Néstor Herran
  • Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
  • Release : 2009-05-27
  • ISBN : 1443811475
  • Pages : 380 pages

Download or read book Beyond Borders written by Néstor Herran and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-27 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does scientific knowledge circulate? Does scientific communication shape the making of science? Is the making of science a national endeavour or does it have an international or transnational dimension? Are teaching and research equally relevant in this endeavour? How can history of science react to the challenges posed by the changing practices of science in historical context? Beyond Borders is a book generated at the heart of these fundamental questions. In the last decades, the history of science has attained a high degree of disciplinary maturity and sophistication. However, perception of disciplinary crisis is apparent behind calls for the search of new “big pictures” and their implementation in teaching and communicating the history of science to wider audiences. Temporal and narrative fragmentation are seen as major drawbacks hindering the development of the discipline. In addition, national, linguistic and methodological division is increasingly afflicting its practice. Like other areas in the humanities, and in contrast to the sciences, the history of science has nowadays a pronounced local character which clearly constrains its intellectual output. Challenging this state of affairs is a major aim of this book, which argues for a resolute call for intellectual and methodological pluralism and internationalism. Through a broad diversity of subjects, periods, and geographies, covering from studies of sixteenth-century astrological texts to contextual analysis of twentieth-century X-ray spectroscopy, this collection of papers and historiographical essays offers a fresh overview of the field and its major questions. Beyond Borders revisits five major topics in history of science, namely the early modern map of knowledge, pedagogy and science, science popularization, science and the nation and the geography of scientific centres and peripheries. Engaging with a broad diversity of historiographical and methodological approaches in an international perspective, Beyond Borders is a rich and plural manifesto contributing to the reflective appraisal of history of science as a discipline.
