Scientific Knowledge and the Transgression of Boundaries: Technikzukünfte, Wissenschaft und Gesellschaft / Futures of Technology, Science and Society
Editat de Bettina-Johanna Krings, Hannot Rodríguez, Anna Schleisieken Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 dec 2016
The aim of this book is to understand and critically appraise science-based transgression dynamics in their whole complexity. It includes contributions from experts with different disciplinary backgrounds, such as philosophy, history and sociology. Thus, it is in itself an example of boundary transgression.
Scientific disciplines and their objects have tended to be seen as permanent and distinct. However, science is better conceived as an activity that constantly surpasses, erases and rebuilds all kinds of boundaries, either disciplinary, socio-ethical or ecological. This transgressive capacity, a characteristic trait of science and its applications, defines us as “knowledge societies.” However, scientific and technological developments are also sources of serious environmental and social concerns.
