  • The Normative Views of Climate Scientists and Their Bearing on Philosophy
    Value-Free yet Policy-Relevant? The Normative Views of Climate Scientists and Their Bearing on Philosophy Torbjørn Gundersen Centre for the Study of Professions, OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University ARENA – Centre for European Studies, University of Oslo This article contributes to the philosophical debate on values in science by exploring how scientists themselves understand the proper role of moral, political, and social values in expert practice. I present findings from interviews with climate scientists who have participated as authors in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The climate scientists subscribe to the value-free ideal as a reg- ulative ideal that applies both to the provision of knowledge to policymakers and how they engage with political issues in the public sphere. Yet their views on the moral responsibility of scientists and the aim of providing policy-relevant output challenge the value-free ideal. The article suggests ways in which their views can be relevant to the philosophical discussion. Keywords: value-free ideal, expert role, IPCC, climate science-moral re- sponsibility, policy relevance, interview study This article has benefited from comments by Edmund Henden, Silje Maria Tellmann, Anders Molander, Marte Mangset, Kjartan Koch Mikalsen, Andreas Eriksen, and Nils Roll-Hansen (whose idea it also was to perform an empirical study of climate scientists). I would like to thank my colleagues at the Centre for the Study of Professions, OsloMet – Oslo Metropolitan University and participants at the workshop The Legitimacy of Depo- liticized Decision-Making at ARENA – Centre for European Studies, University of Oslo for helpful comments. Two anonymous reviewers for this journal provided very helpful com- ments.

  • Post-War Philosophy in Norway. Problems, Achievements and Dilemmas
    FOLIA SCANDINAVICA VOL. 5 POZNAŃ 1999 POST-WAR PHILOSOPHY IN NORWAY. PROBLEMS, ACHIEVEMENTS AND DILEMMAS E w a P io tro w sk a Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań A b stra ct. The aim of the paper is to present the main trends within philosophy in Norway. The author also discusses the most important research works carried out at university centres, the goal of which is to analyse Norwegian post-war philosophy. The predominant movement, so called ‘practical philosophy’, deals with ethical, religious, political, social and economic issues. Many Norwegian philosophers are also active as university teachers or researchers at universities in Oslo (e.g. Arne Naess, Hans Skjervheim, Trond Berg Eriksen, Torstein Tollefsen, A n fin n Stigen) and in Bergen (e.g. Gunnar Skirbekk, Nils Gilje, Vigdis Songe-M0ller, Knut Erik Tran0y). Sophie’s World (Sofies verden) by Jostein Gaarder, a Norwegian philosophy teacher, has recently become a best-selling book on the Polish publishing market. The book, written in consultation with the well-known Norwegian philosopher and historian of science Trond Berg Eriksen, was published in Norway four years earlier. It presents the main achievements of human philosophical thought, with the start­ ing point in antiquity, in the plain and beautiful form of a fictionized dialogue. The book is a typical example of the modern scientific and didactic im­ perative of those preoccupied with philosophy in Norway - difficult philo­ sophical issues should be presented in such a way that they become read­ able and comprehensible for a wide audience. What’s more, they should provide some signposts for average people who think and reflect critically upon the self and the external world.

They just came about, unpredictably, due to special circumstances or interplay with other people. That was exactly what happened in the fall of 1988, when a young Chinese philosopher suddenly turned up at our institute at the University of Bergen. He came for one year, from East China Normal University in Shanghai, to do research in philosophy.
