The experience brought by sociology of science and technology to philosophy of science and technology mainly lies in research methods, which can better sublimate theoretical knowledge and gain new research ideas. Under the current scientific research mode, sociology of science and technology is getting closer and closer to philosophy of science, and then I brought my master's thesis on philosophy, hoping to help you ~
With the development of science, people have a deeper understanding of sociology of science, but there are still many problems that need to be solved urgently. This paper studies the research object and method of this topic. At the same time, sociology of science and philosophy of science and technology should be linked, because both are understanding of science. Therefore, the combination of the two will help to expand the scope of research, so that both disciplines can achieve good research results and make common progress. The main advantages of the combination of the two are to broaden the research field of vision, provide research materials and deepen theoretical viewpoints.
Sociology of science; Philosophy of science and technology; Basic relationship
I consistency between sociology of science and philosophy of science and technology
Before discussing this article, I want to explain the concept of philosophy of science and technology, otherwise it will definitely hinder the later research. As we all know, dialectics of nature is the origin of philosophy of science and technology. In other words, to explain philosophy of science and technology is to explain dialectics of nature. From the long river of history, we can easily find that dialectics of nature originated from Engels' manuscripts. Literally, dialectics of nature is dialectics of nature. But from the perspective of Marxism, dialectics should be the core department of philosophy, but it is not completely equivalent to philosophy. At this level, dialectics of nature can also be called natural philosophy. However, not everyone can understand Marxist theory, so there are still many people who think that dialectics of nature is natural philosophy. Throughout the ages, dialectics of nature, as a research field, has been studied on the premise that dialectics exists in nature. When studying it, we can completely ignore this major premise, mainly because this problem is still too profound for human beings at present. So how do we learn dialectics of nature? In the comprehensive study of Engels' theory, it is not difficult to find that Engels proposed that natural science should be used as the medium when studying dialectics of nature, otherwise our research would not be rigorous.
Second, the value of sociology of science to philosophy of science and technology
The value of sociology of science to philosophy of science and technology is mainly manifested in the following aspects:
(A) broaden the research horizon
As we all know, the study of philosophy of science and technology in China mainly comes from two aspects, one is Engels' Dialectics of Nature, and the other is the western philosophy of science. There is no denying that there is much more scientific and technological research in the west than in us. Now I put forward my views on these two research theories. First of all, the scientific research of dialectics of nature is mainly at the philosophical level, mainly considering the relationship between society and science. The main research focus is the theoretical premise of dialectics of nature. At the same time, the main research idea of western philosophy is to study from a scientific point of view. Combining these two research ideas, there is a lack of research on the relationship between society and science. Therefore, this paper holds that the problems studied by sociology of science have an expanding effect on philosophy of science. If the two disciplines are combined, people's understanding of science will be more comprehensive. Under the current social background, more and more people expand the research field of philosophy of science and technology to the level of sociology of science and technology.
(2) Providing research materials
The second benefit of sociology of science to philosophy of science is that sociology of science can provide more research materials for philosophy of science. Sociology of science is closer to real life, and most of them will study it by case analysis. The research materials in sociology of science are also applicable to philosophy of science and technology. First of all, sociology of science and technology can provide further research foundation for philosophy of science and technology. Secondly, the study of philosophy of science and technology is also enlightening. Many times, experience is very important for scientific research. Finally, the two disciplines are interrelated and can provide more research ideas.
(C) deepen the theoretical point of view
Under the current research situation in China, we can't deny that China's sociology of science comes from European and American countries, and few China researchers can really become the representatives of sociology of science. On the other hand, representatives of sociology of science in Europe and America. Most of them have rich academic knowledge and high scientific literacy. In particular, every sociologist has his own philosophical origin. Various schools of sociology can be formed. It is precisely because these sociologists have their own theoretical viewpoints and representative thoughts. Therefore, sociology of science can bring new impact to philosophy of science and technology. Sociology of science can bring new development opportunities and challenges to philosophy of science and technology. There are challenges and progress, and researchers of philosophy of science and technology study problems in sociology of science. It can enrich the theoretical knowledge of philosophy of science and technology, and the in-depth study of the problem will help improve the level of researchers, which is undoubtedly a good thing for the study of philosophy of science and technology. Through the study of sociology of science and technology, researchers of philosophy of science and technology can find that more social problems will be considered in the study of philosophy of science and technology, and accidental factors and irrational factors will also be included in the research scope. From a deeper level, we can deepen the viewpoint of philosophy of science and technology by studying the problems existing in sociology of science and technology.
Third, the conclusion
The experience brought by sociology of science and technology to philosophy of science and technology mainly lies in research methods, which can better sublimate theoretical knowledge and gain new research ideas. Under the current scientific research mode, sociology of science and technology is getting closer to philosophy of science. Therefore, philosophy of science and technology can develop better by absorbing nutrients from sociology of science.
