Abstract:
In the present article, the effect of value on knowledge has been discussed. This can be challenging in its relationship to “objectivity of knowledge” on the one hand, and in its relationship to the indigenous and/ or religious knowledge. Nevertheless, any progress in this domain is contingent to precisely specifying the meeting points and assumed mutual effect of knowledge and value. The definite question of this article is as follows: “is knowledge value-laden?” The article’s answer to the question has been presented with the following approach: no single prescript can be issued on this subject. It means that the answer would be different from one case to the other, and part of this difference is related to the typology of values.
چکیده و کلیدواژه فارسی (Persian)
Title :دانش، ارزش و دانش ارزش بار
Abstract:
در این مقاله، مسئله تأثیر ارزش بر دانش به بحث گذاشته شده است؛ مسئله اى که از سویى در نسبتش با «عینیت دانش» مى تواند چالش برانگیز باشد و از سوى دیگر در نسبتش با مسئله دانش بومى و یا دینى. این در حالى است که هرگونه پیشرفت در این زمینه منوط است به مشخص کردن دقیق نقاط تقاطع و تأثیر و تأثر فرضى دانش و ارزش. پرسش مشخص این مقاله این است که «آیا علم ارزش بار است؟». پاسخ مقاله به این پرسش، با این رویکرد ارائه شده است که حکم واحدى در باب موضوع این پرسش نمى توان صادر کرد. بدین معنا که پاسخ، از مقامى به مقام دیگر تفاوت خواهد کرد و بخشى از این تفاوت به گونه شناسى ارزش ها مربوط مى شود.
