Drawing on extensive debates from both traditional and postmodern perspectives on science and technology, the title constructs a novel theoretical framework to reexamine these subjects, seamlessly integrating the contrasting viewpoints that either justify or undermine science. As the concluding installment of a three-volume series dedicated to reconsidering science and technology and delving into how the philosophy of science and technology adapts to an ever-evolving world, this final volume aims to reclaim the cultural significance of science. Spanning six chapters, the authors delve into the potential for a pluralistic scientific culture, exploring diverse value choices, the interplay between reason and unreason, other binary traits of scientific knowledge, such as objectivity and uniqueness, universality and locality, as well as the loss, awakening, and reconstruction of scientific culture. The authors fervently advocate for a transformative shift in scientific culture, moving from a dominant to an affirmative stance, and envision a liberated and open realm of science and technology.
This volume will captivate scholars and students with an interest in the philosophy of science and technology, the ideologies of scientism and anti-scientism, modernism and postmodernism, Marxist philosophy, and various topics related to scientific culture.
