Download or read book Science de la culture et science de la nature written by Heinrich Rickert and published by Editions Gallimard. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Heinrich Rickert (1863-1936) est la figure dominante de l'école néokantienne, dite de Bade, dont le principal inspirateur fut Windelband. Heidelberg est le centre géographique et intellectuel où s'exerça son influence. C'est sous sa direction que Heidegger fit sa thèse, et l'œuvre qui est ici pour la première fois traduite constitue le socle philosophique et méthodologique de Max Weber, de même qu'elle est encore le cadre de la classification des sciences telle que la conçoit un Habermas. La réussite de ses élèves a fini par laisser dans l'ombre la figure de ce grand professeur de l'Université allemande à son apogée. La pensée de Rickert est d'abord une réflexion philosophique - jugement, définition et concept - et se développe en une épistémotologie des différents disciplines scientifiques, moins pour en donner une classification descriptive que pour réagir à la fois à l'apparent autonomisation des sciences de la nature, à la volonté hégémonique de telle ou telle discipline - la psychologie et l'histoire, notamment - et à l'apparition de sciences naturelle - et à l'apparition descriptive que pour réagir à la fois à l'apparente autonomisation des sciences de la nature, à la volonté hégémonique de telle ou telle discipline - la psychologie et l'histoire, notamment - et à l'apparition de sciences nouvelles : la biologie, la théorie de l'évolution. Il a voulu également répondre au positivisme ambiant qui niait de plus en plus résolument la pertinence de la réflexion philosophique. L'opinion qui veut mesurer la valeur des disciplines du savoir à l'aune exclusive de la physique mathématique entend dénier le statut de science aux disciplines que nous appelons " sciences humaines ", " sciences sociales " ou " sciences de la culture " ; elle oublie, ce faisant, que les disciplines se distinguent moins par leur objet ou le caractère formel de leurs méthodes que par la finalité de ces méthodes. Rickert montre qu'on ne saurait comparer des disciplines dont la finalité est l'explication dont la description des phénomènes de la nature (en fonction d'une généralisation abstraite) avec des disciplines, comme l'histoire et la sociologie, dont le but est la compréhension des événements humains (et qui procède en fonction d 'une individualisation évaluatrice). Rickert jette ainsi les bases d'une philosophie de la valeur qui est à l'arrière-plan de tous les débats en sociologie et en philosophie politique depuis près d'un siècle.

Download or read book Constitutions of Value written by Isabel Feichtner and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-19 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gathering an interdisciplinary range of cutting-edge scholars, this book addresses legal constitutions of value. Global value production and transnational value practices that rely on exploitation and extraction have left us with toxic commons and a damaged planet. Against this situation, the book examines law’s fundamental role in institutions of value production and valuation. Utilizing pathbreaking theoretical approaches, it problematizes mainstream efforts to redeem institutions of value production by recoupling them with progressive values. Aiming beyond radical critique, the book opens up the possibility of imagining and enacting new and different value practices. This wide-ranging and accessible book will appeal to international lawyers, socio-legal scholars, those working at the intersections of law and economy and others, in politics, economics, environmental studies and elsewhere, who are concerned with rethinking our current ideas of what has value, what does not, and whether and how value may be revalued.

Download or read book Science written by Arnaud Saint-Martin and published by Anamosa. This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Si le "dire vrai" et le "faire science" sont vitaux dans nos sociétés traversées par de multiples crises, des controverses sur les innovations technologiques au Covid-19, les mésusages de la science prolifèrent pourtant. Assumant à la fois sa charge polémique et un attachement à la connaissance scientifique pour elle-même, cet essai renoue avec un idéal éthique de la science. La " science " évoque des réalités très contrastées. Le mot est encore doté d'un certain prestige dans les sociétés où sa pratique a été mise en avant à raison. En ce sens, il dénote une recherche de la vérité qui, depuis l'essor des institutions scientifiques modernes tout au long du 19e siècle, n'ont pas cessé d'inspirer des communautés savantes toutes disciplines confondues. Ce sens n'en est pas moins relativisé aujourd'hui, car il sert à tout et n'importe quoi, notamment à faire passer des opinions pour plus vraies qu'elles ne le sont ou à faire prospérer le commerce d'usurpateurs. Sociologue des sciences et techniques, Arnaud Saint-Martin rétablit la pertinence de lieux communs et d'idées fondatrices de la science telle que nous devrions l'entendre. À partir d'exemples choisis, de la pratique de l'astronomie et d'autres sciences, il explique pourquoi il n'a jamais été aussi important de défendre l'établissement de vérités et de connaissances robustes sur le monde qui nous entoure. Cette recherche revêt en plus une grande valeur culturelle et appelle un certain sens du partage, les connaissances scientifiques constituant un patrimoine commun à entretenir quoi qu'il en coûte. On comprendra à la lecture que la défense et illustration de cette recherche sans fin est solidaire d'une politique de la science.
Download or read book Measuring and Mapping Cultures written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1981, the European and World Values surveys started the empirical investigations of value orientations on a global scale. This volume builds on these surveys, which now cover a time period of a quarter of a century. Two chapters discuss basic theoretical and methodological issues of value research, while four chapters focus on contemporary processes of value change: cultural globalization, individualization, secularization and democratization. These analyses of the data from the value surveys give new life to social science classics such as Tocqueville, Durkheim, Marx and Weber. The analyses are also of interest to the practitioners of economic and social development as well as educational and cultural policies. Contributors include: Chris Cochran, Yilmaz Esmer, Ronald Inglehart, Neil Nevitte, Shalom Schwartz, Thorleif Pettersson and Christian Welzel. This book was originally published as Volume 5 no. 2-3 (2006) of Brill's journal ‘Comparative Sociology'.
Download or read book Historiography of the History of Science in Islamicate Societies written by Sonja Brentjes and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-09-05 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents eight papers about important historiographical issues as debated in the history of science in Islamicate societies, the history of science and philosophy of medieval Latin Europe and the history of mathematics as an academic discipline. Six papers deal with themes about the sciences in Islamicate societies from the ninth to the seventeenth centuries, among them novelty, context and decline. Two other papers discuss the historiographical practices of historians of mathematics and other disciplines in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The central argument of the collected papers is that in addition and beyond the study of scientific texts and instruments historians of science in Islamicate societies need to pay attention to cultural, material and social aspects that shaped the scientific activities of the authors and makers of such texts and instruments. It is pointed out that the diachronic, de-contextualized comparison between methods and results of scholars from different centuries, regions and cultures often leads to serious distortions of the historical record and is responsible for the long-term neglect of scholarly activities after the so-called "Golden Age". The book will appeal in particular to teachers of history of science in Islamicate societies, to graduate students interested in issues of methodology and to historians of science grappling with the unresolved problems of how think and write about the sciences in concrete societies of the past instead of subsuming all extant texts, instruments, maps and other objects related to the sciences under macro-level concepts like Islam or Latin Europe.

Download or read book The Mystery of Values written by Ludwig Grünberg and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-08 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study of axiology explores the axiocentricity of being human. Human beings dwell in the realm of value. Values are not simply what persons have; values in large part are what persons are. The mystique of values is analyzed here in terms of their cultural, phenomenological, and ontological status. The relationship between science and values is debated. Values should not be submitted to reductionism. Postmodernism raises new problems for the future of a philosophy of values. Yet, we may direct our hopes toward happiness, universalism, and humanism as inseparable from value-life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "... the papers in Deviant Bodies reveal an ongoing Western preoccupation with the sources of identity and human character." -- Times Literary Supplement "Highly recommended for cultural studies... " -- The Reader's Review "It would be useful for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in the sociology of the body, the history and sociology of science and medicine, and women's studies courses, particularly those exploring the feminist critiques of science and medicine." -- Contemporary Sociology "... a powerful deconstruction of the scientific gaze in configuring bodily deviance as a means of legitimating the social order within multiple historical and social contexts.... the many excellent selections will make for compelling reading for students of medical anthropology and the history of science." American Anthropologist Deviant Bodies reveals that the "normal," "healthy" body is a fiction of science. Modern life sciences, medicine, and the popular perceptions they create have not merely observed and reported, they have constructed bodies: the homosexual body, the HIV-infected body, the infertile body, the deaf body, the colonized body, and the criminal body.
