认知地图与科学实在——对齐曼《真科学》的解读

Cognitive Map and Science Reality——An Interpretation of Ziman's Real Science

著名科学社会学家约翰·齐曼认为,当代科学正在从学院时代走向后学院时代,他既反对朴素的科学知识真理论,也不赞同知识社会学的建构主义立场,提倡一种“关于科学的自然主义的解释”。齐曼承认科学的实在性,但同时也强调建构性对科学的作用,他以一种融合辨证的观点描述了现实的科学。

According to the famous science socialist John Ziman, modern science is moving from the scholastic era to the post-scholastic era. He neither proposes the theory of plain scientific knowledge truth nor the constructivism of the knowledge sociology; instead he advocates ＂a naturalism interpretation of science＂. Ziman agrees to the role of constructivism to science and he describes the real science in a way that integrates dialectics.
