Abstract:

Kartezjańska epistemologia społeczna? Współczesna epistemologia społeczna a wczesna filozofia nowożytna Wielu współczesnych epistemologów społecznych uważa, że tocząc batalię z indywidualistycznym podejściem do wiedzy, walczy tym samym z podejściem do wiedzy opisanym przez Kartezjusza. Choć wypada się zgodzić, że Kartezjusz przedstawia indywidualistyczny obraz wiedzy naukowej, niemniej trzeba dodać, że wskazuje on na istotne praktyczne funkcje odnoszenia się do świadectw i przekonań innych osób. Jednakże zrozumienie racji Kartezjusza za zaangażowaniem się w indywidualizm pozwala nam na identyfikację kluczowych wyzwań, z jakimi spotka się epistemologia społeczna, m.in., że poleganie na świadectwach innych może propagować uprzedzenia oraz hamować autentyczne zrozumienie. Implikacje zawarte u Kartezjusza zostały opracowywane i rozwinięte przez niektórych z jego bezpośrednich spadkobierców. W prezentowanym tekście zostanie przedstawione, jak np. François Poulain de la Barre oraz w pewnym skrócie przez Mary Astell analizują uwarunkowania społeczne kształtujące podmiot epistemiczny rozumiany w duchu Kartezjusza.

Abstract:

Abstract Quakerism emerged in the seventeenth century, during a time when philosophical debates about the nature of knowledge led to the emergence of modern science. The Quakers, in some conversation with early modern philosophers, developed a distinctive epistemology rooted in their concept of the Light Within, which functioned as a special internal sense giving access to divine insight. The Light Within provided illumination both to properly understand the Bible and to ‘read’ the Book of Nature. This epistemology can be thought of as an expanded experiential empiricism that integrates our ethical and religious knowledge with our scientific knowledge. This epistemology has carried through in Quaker thought to the present day and can be helpful in the context of today’s epistemological crisis.

Abstract:

Neste artigo temos como objetivo tratar do significado político da secularização. Iniciamos abordando a tensão existente entre a epistemologia religiosa e a epistemologia do humanismo exclusivo. Damos continuidade problematizando a questão referente à era dos reordenamentos e da transmutação para uma nova ordem moral secularizada, na qual o agente humano se autointerpreta. Assim, destacamos a relevância da presença da epistemologia religiosa na construção de uma nova mentalidade no imaginário social moderno. Surge a implicação do exercício do self se avaliar fortemente a partir da epistemologia imanente do humanismo exclusivo. Outra abordagem empreendida deste problema é a da elaboração de uma ética da autenticidade, que interferiu na construção da identidade moral expressivista, cada vez mais desarraigada dos pressupostos da epistemologia religiosa. Então, abordamos a postura do agente humano viver o conflito de busca por autorrealização e sentido normativo-ontológico para o seu self ao articular a sua forma de vida e identidade moral numa era secular. [In this article we aim to address the political significance of secularization. We begin by addressing the tension between religious epistemology and the epistemology of exclusive humanism. We proceed to the question of the age of reordering and transmutation into a new secularized moral order, where the human agent is self-interpreting. Thus, we highlight the relevance of the presence of religious epistemology in the construction of a new mentality in the modern social imaginary. The implication of the exercise of the self arises strongly from the immanent epistemology of exclusive humanism. Another approach taken to this problem is the elaboration of an Ethics of authenticity, which interfered in the construction of expressivist moral identity, increasingly uprooted from the presuppositions of religious epistemology. So we approach the posture of the human agent to live the search conflict for self-realization and normative-ontological sense for his self by articulating his way of life and moral identity in a secular age.]

Abstract:

Abstract : The hegemony of rational-positivistic paradigm of modern Western epistemology contributes greatly to the development of modern thought. The paradigm, so far, brings knowledge and science into mere instrumental goals. Scientism is the result of the paradigm which lost of its sacred as science. Therefore, it gets philosophical attack from both Western postmodern thinkers and indigenous scholars who already experienced Western colonialism and imperialism. One of the Moslem scholars who criticized the hegemony of Western thought to Islamic culture and civilization is Muhammad Iqbal. For Iqbal, for centuries, Muslim thinkers were unable to see Islam from Quran point of view because they perceive it from the eye of rational-speculative Greek philosophy. Islamic thinking had been under its hegemony for so long that need to be deconstructed. In the postcolonial perspective, Iqbal’s attempt to decolonize Western rational-speculative epistemology from Plato to Descartes found him in ambivalence. British colonialism experienced by Iqbal in India formed the hybrid culture in his project of reconstructing Islamic thought in relation to Western thought. Therefore, Iqbal’s attempt to bridge the gap between rational-speculative of Western thought and mystic- religious tendencies of Islamic thought is a process of seeking “the Third Space” through mimicry as consequence of cultural interaction between the colonizer and the colonized.Kata-kata Kunci: decolonization of epistemology, hybrid culture, Islamic epistemology, the Third Space. Abstrak : Hegemoni paradigma epistemologi Barat modern yang rasional positivistik berkontribusi besar terhadap perkembangan pemikiran modern. Paradigma tersebut sejauh ini, menggiring pengetahuan dan sains pada tujuan-tujuan yang bersifat instrumental. Saintisisme merupakan hasil dari paradigma positivistik tersebut yang kehilangan kesakralannya sebagai ilmu. Oleh karena itu paradigma ini mendapatkan serangan filosofis tidak hanya dari pemikir Barat pascamodernisme namun juga dari pemikir pribumi yang pernah mengalami penjajahan dan imperialisme Barat. Salah satu pemikir Muslim yang mengritik hegemoni pemikiran Barat terhadap kebudayaan dan peradaban Islam adalah Muhammad Iqbal. Bagi Iqbal, selama beberapa abad lamanya pemikir Muslim tidak mampu berfikir secara Qurani akibat cara pandang mereka yang melihat Islam dari kacamata filsafat Yunani yang cenderung hanya bersifat rasional-spekulatif. Pemikiran Yunani telah menghegemoni pemikiran Islam begitu lama sehingga perlu didekonstruksi. Dalam perspektif pasca kolonial (postcolonial), usaha Iqbal untuk mendekolonisasi epistemologi rasional-spekulatif Barat sejak Plato hingga Descartes, menghadapi sikap yang ambivalen. Pengalaman penjajahan Inggris di India yang pernah dialami Iqbal membentuk kultur hibrida dalam proyeknya merekonstruksi pemikiran Islam dalam kaitannya dengan pemikiran Barat. Dengan demikian, Iqbal mencoba menjembatani jurang antara pemikiran rasional- spekulatif Barat dengan kecenderungan mistik-religius pemikiran Islam sebagai upaya mencari “Ruang Ketiga” melalui mimikri sebagai konsekuensi dari interaksi budaya antara penjajah dan terjajah.Kata-Kata Kunci: dekolonisasi epistemologi, budaya hibrida, epistemologi Islam, Ruang Ketiga.

Abstract:

A predominância do pensamento Ocidental/moderno-colonial no campo das Relações Internacionais tem despertado críticas de estudiosos vinculados ao Pensamento Decolonial e a outras matrizes de conhecimento. Este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar uma sistematização da fundamentação filosófica-epistemológica da crítica decolonial ao pensamento moderno e sua repercussão nas Relações Internacionais e, a partir dessas contribuições, propor uma aproximação com alguns estudos que, fora do âmbito da colonialidade, discutem a predominância de um pensamento ocidental na disciplina. Como consequência da aproximação entre esses saberes diversos, apresentamos alguns balanços e perspectivas para a área: a necessidade de conexão entre epistemologia-ética-política; a reabilitação de conhecimentos e modos de conhecer não-Ocidentais sem renunciar ao método científico; uma visão não ingênua que leve em conta as questões de poder; e uma articulação entre saber e poder, teoria e política para uma práxis situada e histórica vertida à realidade internacional.Palavras-chave: Racionalidade moderna; pensamento decolonial; epistemologia. ABSTRACTThe predominance of Western / modern-colonial thought in the field of International Relations has aroused criticism from scholars linked to Decolonial Thought and other knowledge matrices. This work aims to present a systematization of the philosophical-epistemological foundation of the decolonial critique of modern thought and its repercussion in International Relations and, based on these contributions, propose an approximation with some studies that, outside the scope of coloniality, discuss the predominance of a western thought in the discipline. As a consequence of the approximation between these diverse knowledges, we present some balances and perspectives for the area: the need for a connection between epistemology-ethics-politics; the rehabilitation of non-Western knowledge and ways of knowing without giving up the scientific method; a non-naive view that takes into account issues of power; and an articulation between knowledge and power, theory and politics for a situated and historical praxis turned to the international reality.Keywords: Modern rationality; decolonial thinking; epistemology.

AbstractThis paper examines the epistemological model based upon the Enlightenment paradigm that underlies Modern Western thought and discusses other forms of writing and production of knowledge. Based on the the work of Michel Foucault, Walter Benjamin, Giorgio Agamben and others, we consider the production of knowledge in darkness. We start out with an evaluation of the effects of an epistemology of light and the potential of thought in the absence of light. We present an analysis of the relationship of that epistemology with forms of organization and urban lighting, as well as the production of invisible subjectivities. In a writing exercise conducted in a zone of shadows, we relate a story which binds the production of light and shadow and their productive power within contemporary urban society. Finally, this study affirms the power of shadows and the need to devise strategies that allow us to write in or with darkness and with those invisible subjectivities which inhabit it.Keywords: epistemology, writing, cities, subjectivities, powerResumoNesse artigo refletimos sobre o modelo epistemológico pautado na ideia de luzes constituinte do pensamento Ocidental Moderno, discutindo outras formas de escrever e produzir conhecimento.

Abstract:

Versions of naturalized epistemology that overlook or reject apriority ignore innate belief-forming processes that provide much of the grounding for epistemic warrant. A rigorous analysis reveals that non-experiential ways of viewing apriority, such as innateness, establish the domain for a plausible naturalistic theory of a priori warrant. A moderate version of naturalistic epistemology that embraces the non-experiential feature of apriority and motivates future cognitive scientific research is the preferred account.

Abstract:

Este trabalho tem por tema a técnica moderna e sua relação com a ciência; sendo o ensaio heideggeriano (A questão da técnica) leitmotiv à discussão. Para tanto, o objetivo que cerca esta pesquisa diz respeito à pergunta - que é a técnica moderna? A esta interrogação se dá, portanto, uma questão ontológica de investigação. Todavia, o modo de se proceder ao exame deste objeto se faz por um caminho exploratório de cunho teórico, baseado na proposta hermenêutica, a fim de entender o que ela é, bem como a força que poderia exercer sobre o modo de ser e pensar científicos. Com efeito, a explicação metafísica (filosófica) sobre o item em análise, a técnica, pôs em questão o mecanismo que ocultamente operaria em todas as expressões da técnica; demonstrando sua essência que atravessa todo o método científico, e o próprio status de conhecimento sobre os objetos observados e criados pela ciência. Fato este que, finalmente, destituiria a técnica enquanto meio, dando a ela, no mundo científico moderno, o estatuto de causa ontológica, razão de existência das coisas
The paper\'s subject concerns modern technology and its relation to the modern science; however, the Heidegger\'s essay (The question of technology) is the leitmotiv for this discussion. Therefore, the aim surrounding this research concerns the question - what is the modern technology? To this question is therefore gives an ontological research enquire. However, the way to carry out an examination of this object is done by an exploratory path of theoretical method investigation, based on the hermeneutic proposal. All that to understand what it is and the power that it could have on the way of being and thinking scientifically. Indeed, the metaphysical explanation (philosophical analysis) about the item in question, the technology, called into question the mechanism that secretly operates in all the technical expressions; demonstrating its essence that runs through the scientific method, and the very status of knowledge about the objects observed and created by science. This fact ultimately deprive the technology as a means, giving it, in the modern scientific world, the status of ontological cause, reason for existence of things

Abstract:

Há geralmente duas maneiras de se estudar o ceticismo de Hume: aproximando-o dos céticos pirrônicos, apesar dos seus protestos, ou aproximando-o dos acadêmicos, seguindo a recomendação do próprio autor. Entretanto, existe outra maneira de compreendermos o seu ceticismo, que consiste em avaliar em que medida Hume se aproxima de cada escola cética, e em que sentido se distancia delas. Para este propósito, nada melhor do que tentar compreender o ceticismo de Hume comparando as suas concepções com as de outros céticos do período em que ele viveu. A tese tem por finalidade realizar este confronto, a fim de contribuir para a interpretação do ceticismo moderno e sugerir uma maneira de aproximá-lo do ceticismo de Hume.
In general, there are two ways to study Humes skepticism: comparing his ideas to Pyrrhonic skeptic, in spite of his disapproval, and comparing him to academic philosophers, following the authors recommendations. However, there is another way to interpret Humes skepticism, namely, evaluating how he differs from Pyrrhonic and academician philosophers. The better approach is to compare Humes skepticism to other skepticss conceptions of Humes age. The main goal of the present thesis is put in evidence these approaches to understanding modern skepticism and, specifically, a way to compare it to Humes skepticism.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores the role of ignorance in the process of early modern self-fashioning. Renaissance historiography has, by and large, been based on a Cartesian-cum-Hegelian understanding of the subject as a subject of knowledge. An individual's recognition of her self-motivated agency, her power to act as an independent self, has been read as the product of the generation of knowledge and epistemologies that assert human ability to pursue and master knowledge. Critical theories of subjectivity have challenged the humanist subject and its epistemological foundations, but ignorance and the unknown have rarely been theorized as anything more than empty spaces to be invaded and filled by knowledge. Building on recent philosophical and cultural materialist investigations into knowledge, ignorance, and the subject, my work studies how ignorance can operate as a positive force in the production of the self and how, paradoxically, knowledge can erode the epistemological foundations of subjectivity. Primarily focused on the literature of early modern Europe, this dissertation advances the study of early modern subjectivity as well as the relationship between epistemology and the self as perceived in contemporary theory by tracing the hitherto ignored operations of ignorance and complicating the assumption of a teleological connection between knowledge and subjectivity. In particular, the major areas of study are: how hegemonic discourses produce not only knowledge but also ignorance in order to stabilize the existence and authority of social hierarchies and empowered subject; how the creation and pursuit of knowledge outside of these demarcations can erode the foundations of social identity and individual subjectivity by revealing the fiction of cultural "truths"; how cultural spaces of ignorance can provide disempowered individuals opportunities for resistance and self-fashioning against socially prescribed norms; and how submission to or acknowledgment of one's own ignorance can become internalized as an essential part of a subjectivity that does not rely on knowledge as a form of power.

Abstract:

The overall aim of this research project that is done in the field of Phenomenology and Ontogenetic Epistemology, is to investigate the possibility of employing the Illuminative elements for solving the Ontological Crisis in Western epistemology of the self. Descartes, the father of modern western thought, gave through his Meditations a priority to Cogito over Sum, and this historically became a turning point for the movement that crystallised in Kant's Copernican Revolution by which metaphysics was identified with epistemology indicating that epistemology can thereafter be considered without any need for ontology. One of the immediate consequences of detaching epistemology from ontology in this history has in the main been the dismissal of the 'being' of the self in modern theories. In parallel to the existential phenomenology's purport to supply this lack in modern epistemology of the self, this research attempts in its own way to achieve a solution by delving into the Persian Illuminative school and by seeking even to assign a new role to its philosophical system to gain a new vision of the self and consciousness. To remedy, first a reconstruction of the Illuminative Method is introduced. This embodies the claim that although legitimate in itself, epistemology that is based upon the theory of essence cannot be detached from ontology. This method ultimately appeals to a very subtle and special field, the Ontetic Field, under which everything is reduced to Being and is grounded by it. Applying of this method provides an entry to considering the problematic of the self in the ontetic field in which the being of the self is encountered as an epiphany of Being that is immersed in and, at the same time, present to Being. The keen relation of 'Being' and the 'being' of the self is exposed as a performative, existential experience called the unitary consciousness. This moment implies that there is no subject (mind, etc.) in modern subjectivistic sense; the subject is only a self as unitary consciousness. In this context, the Illuminative philosophy is also directed to answering some major problems that arise from modern subjectivism, including our consciousness of private states (esp. senses and body), reflective (ISubject-Objectlive) knowledge and our grasping of the reality of objects. On this basis, some immediate conclusions are set forth, including (i) a refutation of a triple trap which follows from the ontological crisis: skepticism, solipsism and idealism; (ii) the agreement of the Illuminative theory with common sense; and (iii) a suggestion as to how one could read the authors of modern theories of the self in an Illuminative context.

Full text

Abstract:

This project seeks to understand the relationship between discursive practices and the conceptions of nature, heroism, and masculinity found in Victorian and modern Imperial British culture. It does this by tracing two interwoven stories that materialized in the North and South Poles. The first being concerned with how polar landscape was perceived and created as Sublime by the discursive practices of explorers, authors, artists, and the press. The second being concerned with how polar discourse was used and influenced by British imperial rhetoric. In such a context, there was an opportunity for the British Empire to create a space that reclaimed and “proved” the unchanging presence of mid-Victorian Britishness. Even in its decline, the Empire was able to push forth the idea that modernism, war, and flux would not hold sway over the British spirit itself. Relying on expedition narratives, literary publications, paintings, and press coverage, this work highlights the importance (and fluidity) of intellectual concepts and their influence over the way that space was imagined by the British. Ultimately, the project seeks to lend insight into the significant connection between polar discourse and World War I discourse, showing how the mythological way of imagining the poles became a catalyst for imagining indescribable spaces of horror during the most destructive war in European history.

Abstract:

This paper focuses on two contemporary problems in IS development: those of choosing which IS methodology to use (if any), and the practical problems related to using an IS methodology whilst intervening in modern, complex, turbulent organizations. As IS practitioners must, increasingly, intervene in such organizations, it is argued that an important issue for IS research is whether they choose to do so in (what will be characterized as) an authentic manner. The epistemological consequences of authentic intervention are then explored, and it is concluded that many approaches to IS development are authentically possible and practical, although softer approaches have always emphasized the human dimension of IS development. Although the terms ‘relevance' and ‘rigor' are used herein they are not used in quite the same sense as they are used in the IS research debate concerning relevance and rigor.

Abstract:

The rapid development of Chinese cities in the past three decades has caused the transformation of the structure of historical urban spaces, resulting in the fragmentation of historical environment and the blurring of historical pattern. This study proposes to use the epistemology of historical prescriptiveness to recognize the characteristics of urban historical environment, so as to effectively protect the city as a whole. Historical prescriptiveness refers to the spatialtemporal correlation effect in the process of urban historical environment change, which makes the current historical elements of the city present as a whole with hierarchy, structure and system. This kind of epistemology is most prominent in ancient maps. The schema-symbol relation can express the paradigm of traditional structure, the schema-symbol choice can express the order of multiple symbols, and the schema-symbol intention can express the meaning of camp city culture. Based on these potential criteria, this study summarizes the logical relations and existing forms of the old and new elements in urban space, and then explores the historical prescriptive content. The specific content of historical prescriptiveness is embodied in the following aspects: the implicit control of the historical pattern in spatial positioning, the transformation and recognition of historical elements in evolutionary comparison, and the inheritance and continuation of urban memory in the extraction of connotations. Taking the ancient city of Shipu in Zhejiang as an example, the study explores the characteristics of the ancient city of Shipu from three aspects: the succession of Haiphong’s fortification and city-port structure, the alienation of the texture of the ancient towns and streets of Jiangnan, the rejuvenation of the city with the reappearance of culture in eastern Zhejiang. Based on this case, this study proposes a holistic conservation idea of historical city in the modern context of "space and time compression".

Abstract:

Computer-aided design (CAD) tools play a significant role in the modern product commercialization environment. As CAD and general CAx technology advances, it becomes more important to understand how engineers adapt their expertise to new environments and problems. This work examines a methodology consisting of a set of surveys, interviews, and exercises with a small group of practicing engineers to assess adaptive expertise (AE) and relate this AE to CAD modeling performance and procedures. Results detail AE survey results, a modeling and alteration exercise, and an exercise where engineers are asked to model a component using a CAD platform they are unfamiliar with. Interview and time use (from screen capture videos) results from this exercise are presented along with other data. Correlations among AE survey and interview variables and model analysis variables are presented. The epistemology dimension of the AE survey was found to be negatively correlated with both original modeling and alteration time. Overall modeling time in the different platform was positively correlated with the percentage of time a participant spent engaging in trial and error; modeling time in the different platform was negatively correlated with percentage of time spent doing actual modeling and the time spent thinking.

Abstract:

Worldview as a kind of man's look towards the world of reality has a severe influence on his classification of knowledge. In other words one may see in classification of knowledge the unity as well as plurality. This article deals with the fact that how classification takes place in man's epistemological process. Perception and epistemology are mentioned as the key points here. Philosophers are usually classifiers and their point of views forms the way they classify things and concepts. Relationship and how one looks at it in shaping the classification scheme is critical. The classifications which have been introduced up to now have had several models. They represent the kind of looking at, or point of view of their founders to the world. Aristotle, as a philosopher as well as an encyclopedist, is one of the great founders of knowledge classification. Afterwards the Islamic scholars followed him while some few rejected his model and made some new ones. If we divide all classifications according to their roots we may define them as human based classification, theology based classification, knowledge based classification, materialistic based classification such as Britannica's classification, and fact based classification. Tow broad approaches have been defined in this article: static and dynamic. The static approach refers to the traditional approaches and the dynamic one refers to the eight way of looking toward objects in order to realize them. The structure of classification has had its influence on epistemology, too. If the first cut on knowledge tree is fully defined, the branches would usually be consistent with it.

Abstract:

Formal frameworks for Epistemology need to have enough logical structure to enable interesting conclusions regarding epistemic phenomena and to be expressive enough to model competing positions in the philosophical and logical literature. While beliefs are commonly accepted as hyperintensional attitudes, i.e., epistemic attitudes, which may differ even towards necessarily equivalent sentences, most work on standard epistemic logic has relied on idealised and intensional agents. This is particularly true in the area of AGM-inspired Belief Change. Although a few recent studies investigate hyperintensional models of belief change, few have been well connected to the AGM framework, the main paradigm in the area. This work investigates hyperintensional notions of belief base contraction and belief set contraction, as studied in the AGM framework, and its connections to partial meet contractions. We also provide suitable representation theorems, characterising the constructions by means of rationality postulates.
