  • Biohumanities: Rethinking the Relationship Between Biosciences, Philosophy and History of Science, and Society*
    Biohumanities: Rethinking the relationship between biosciences, philosophy and history of science, and society* Karola Stotz† Paul E. Griffiths‡ ____________________________________________________________________ †Karola Stotz, Cognitive Science Program, 810 Eigenmann, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN 47408, USA, [email protected] ‡Paul Griffiths, School of Philosophical and Historical Inquiry, University of Sydney, NSW 2006, Australia, [email protected] *This material is based upon work supported by the National Science Foundation under Grants #0217567 and #0323496. Any opinions, findings, and conclusions or recommendations expressed in this material are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Science Foundation. Griffiths work on the paper was supported by Australian Research Council Federation Fellowship FF0457917. Abstract We argue that philosophical and historical research can constitute a ‘Biohumanities’ which deepens our understanding of biology itself; engages in constructive 'science criticism'; helps formulate new 'visions of biology'; and facilitates 'critical science communication'. We illustrate these ideas with two recent 'experimental philosophy' studies of the concept of the gene and of the concept of innateness conducted by ourselves and collaborators. 1 1. Introduction: What is 'Biohumanities'? Biohumanities is a view of the relationship between the humanities (especially philosophy and history of science), biology, and society1. In this vision, the humanities not only comment on the significance or implications of biological knowledge, but add to our understanding of biology itself. The history of genetics and philosophical work on the concept of the gene both enrich our understanding of genetics. This is perhaps most evident in classic works on the history of genetics, which not only describe how we reached our current theories but deepen our understanding of those theories through comparing and contrasting them to the alternatives which they displaced (Olby, 1974, 1985).

  • Education As a Geisteswissenschaft:’ an Introduction to Human Science Pedagogy Norm Friesen
    JOURNAL OF CURRICULUM STUDIES https://doi.org/10.1080/00220272.2019.1705917 ‘Education as a Geisteswissenschaft:’ an introduction to human science pedagogy Norm Friesen Educational Technology, Boise State University, Boise, Idaho, USA ABSTRACT KEYWORDS Human Science Pedagogy is ‘astrangecase,’ as Jürgen Oelkers has recently Human Sciences; noted: In the Anglophone world, where Gert Biesta has compellingly encour- Disciplinarity; Friedrich aged scholars to ‘reconsider education as a Geisteswissenschaft’ (a human Schleiermacher; Wilhelm science) its main themes and the contributions of its central figures remain Dilthey; Klaus Mollenhauer; Educational Theory unknown. For Germans, particularly in more ‘general’ or philosophical areas of educational scholarship (i.e. Allgemeine Pädagogik), this same pedagogy is recognized only insofar as it is critiqued and rejected. Taking this strange situation as its frame, this paper introduces Human Science Pedagogy to English-language readers, providing a cursory overview of its history and principal contributors, while suggesting the contemporary relevance of its themes and questions in both English- and German-language scholarship. This paper concludes with an appeal to readers on both sides of the Atlantic to new or renewed consideration of this pedagogy as a significant and influential source for educational thinking deserving further scholarly attention. Introduction Human Science Pedagogy (geisteswissenschaftliche Pädagogik) is a way of understanding education in terms of human cultures, practices, and experiences, as well as through biographical and collective history1.Itoffers a perspective on education ‘as one of the humanities or arts rather than as a science’ (Tröhler, 2003, p. 759), or alternatively, as a specifically ‘hermeneutic science’ (Biesta, 2011, p. 185; emphasis added). Human Science Pedagogy has further been defined as an effort to ‘give mean- ingful interpretation to educational phenomena in their historical-cultural particularity’2 (Matthes, 2007, p.

  • Introduction to Philosophy of Science
    INTRODUCTION TO PHILOSOPHY OF SCIENCE The aim of philosophy of science is to understand what scientists did and how they did it, where history of science shows that they performed basic research very well. Therefore to achieve this aim, philosophers look back to the great achievements in the evolution of modern science that started with the Copernicus with greater emphasis given to more recent accomplishments. The earliest philosophy of science in the last two hundred years is Romanticism, which started as a humanities discipline and was later adapted to science as a humanities specialty. The Romantics view the aim of science as interpretative understanding, which is a mentalistic ontology acquired by introspection. They call language containing this ontology “theory”. The most successful science sharing in the humanities aim is economics, but since the development of econometrics that enables forecasting and policy, the humanities aim is mixed with the natural science aim of prediction and control. Often, however, econometricians have found that successful forecasting by econometric models must be purchased at the price of rejecting equation specifications based on the interpretative understanding supplied by neoclassical macroeconomic and microeconomic theory. In this context the term “economic theory” means precisely such neoclassical equation specifications. Aside from economics Romanticism has little relevance to the great accomplishments in the history of science, because its concept of the aim of science has severed it from the benefits of the examination of the history of science. The Romantic philosophy of social science is still resolutely practiced in immature sciences such as sociology, where mentalistic description prevails, where quantification and prediction are seldom attempted, and where implementation in social policy is seldom effective and often counterproductive.

  • Automated (Post)Positivism for Half a Century, the Word
    Automated (Post)Positivism For half a century, the word “positivism” has been invested with meanings of methodological and political conservatism. Yet the shared reference point for the collective memories of urban geography and other social sciences -- the Fordist methodological positivism of the mid- twentieth century -- obscures an earlier radical history. The long-forgotten project launched by Auguste Comte in 1822 was hijacked and corrupted in the twentieth century, and today the informational innovations of digital capitalism are reanimating the corpse of Cold War positivism. Yet this reanimation is a dehumanized, automated adaptation to the poststructuralist situated epistemologies of consumer sovereignty, creating a strange hybrid zombie of the dashed hopes of Enlightenment modernity and the postpositivist relativism that goes back to a pre- Comtean metaphysics and (market) theology. Reclaiming the radical Comte is the first step in the fight against an aggressive, right-wing (post)positivist zombie reanimated by the neoliberal project.

  • The Approved List of Humanities and Social Science Courses for Engineering Degrees
    The Approved List of Humanities and Social Science Courses For Engineering Degrees Students should check the current catalog to ensure any prerequisite and departmental requirements are met. “NOTE: Some curricula may require the completion of a specified number of upper-level Humanities/Social Science (H/SS) electives. An upper-level H/SS elective is generally understood to be a course at the 2000-level or above which requires as a prerequisite the successful completion of a lower level H/SS course. For example, a student might take History 1310 as a lower level H/SS elective. Then later the student takes History 3420 which requires either History 1300 or History 1310 as a pre-requisite. Therefore, History 3420 counts as an upper level H/SS elective. However, students must check with their academic advisor about specific department guidelines regarding upper-level H/SS electives.” Approved Humanities Courses ART Art 1120 Drawing I Art 1140 Painting I Art 1164 Sculpture Art 1180 Art Appreciation Art 1185 Study of Film Art 2130 Drawing II Art 2150 Painting II Art 3001 Special Topics – Innovation & Design Thinking Art 3203 Architectural Design I Art 3221 Introduction to Photography Art 3222 Revolution & Romanticism in the Arts 1785-1832 Art 3250 Thematic Studies in Film & Literature Art 3260 Exploring Digital Art English Literature English 1211 British Literature I: The Beginnings to 1800 English 1212 British Literature II: 1800 to Present English 1221 American Literature: 1600 to 1865 English 1222 American Literature: 1865 to Present English

  • Humanities and Social Science Electives
    Humanities and Social Science Electives All Humanities and Social Science (H & SS) courses applied towards degree requirements must be taken for a letter grade and also be selected from the most recent list of H & SS electives approved by the engineering faculty (see information below). Humanities is the branch of learning regarded as having primarily a cultural character and usually includes languages, art, music, literature, history, and philosophy. Social Science is the branch of science that deals with the institutions and functioning of human society and with the interpersonal relationships of individuals as members of society. A student’s DARS report should be checked for K-State 8 requirements when selecting H&SS electives. Further information regarding K-State 8 requirements can be found at www.k-state.edu/kstate8/. Please note: some courses are similar and therefore, only one of these courses can be used towards degree requirements. 1, 2 College Approved Courses Architecture ARCH ARCH 3012 LAR LAR 322 Agriculture AGEC AGEC 315 Arts & AERO Upon completion of all courses required for AERO program, 4 hours of humanities and social sciences may be awarded.
