SSK对科学知识的解蔽——兼评布鲁尔的《知识和社会意象》

SSK's Demasking of the Scientific Knowledge——Evaluating Knowledge and Social Imagery Written by David Bloor

"强纲领"作为支撑SSK学说的研究纲领,其所包含的四项原则对科学知识的成因进行了相对主义的说明。虽然SSK的相对主义立场遭到了一些批判,但其注重从社会维度考察人类的认知活动,凸显科学知识中的社会因素的做法,具有重要的理论意义。

As the research program supporting SSK,the strong program＇s four principles explain the causes of scientific knowledge from the perspective of relativism. Although the relativism standpoint of SSK suffers some criticism,its practice has the important theoretical significance,which emphasizes investigating human cognitive activities from the social dimension and highlights the social factors of scientific knowledge.
