Sacando consecuencias

¿Queda algún papel para la filosofía en una sociedad en la que los saberes se han especializado hasta el extremo? ¿Qué suerte han corrido los grandes temas filosóficos -el ser, el bien, la verdad, el sujeto, la libertad, el conocimiento, el sentido...-, cuando se asume que la ciencia y la democracia deberían resolver todos nuestros los problemas? Este libro plantea que hemos de responder a esas preguntas de un modo radicalmente anticartesiano: en lugar de partir de la mera certeza del ¿yo pienso¿ para crear un sistema perfecto y omnicomprensivo, dejémonos guiar por los conocimientos que los humanos hemos logrado alcanzar sobre el mundo, la sociedad y nosotros mismos, y saquemos las...

LA LONJA DEL SABER. INTRODUCCIÓN A LA ECONOMÍA DEL CONOCIMIENTO CIENTÍFICO

La lonja del saber desarrolla una perspectiva original desde la que llevar a cabo el estudio de este proceso, utilizando las herramientas básicas del análisis económico, pero abordando las cuestiones fundamentales investigadas en la epistemología (¿cuál es el fundamento de la validez del conocimiento científico?) y en la sociología de la ciencia (¿cómo está estructurado el proceso de investigación desde el punto de vista social?). En la primera parte ("Economía constitucional de la ciencia") se estudia la elección de las normas metodológicas de una disciplina científica por parte de sus miembros, mientras que en la segunda parte ("Análisis del consenso científico") se estudia el mecanismo por el que se alcanza en cada disciplina un determinado grado de acuerdo acerca de los resultados de la investigación.

New technological communication methods have created new kinds of interactions among us that have allowed people across the globe to become closer, but they have also created more complex global dynamics. These dynamics have expanded the workings of human behavior, making human-seeming artificial intelligence a more difficult goal to achieve.

Covering important topics such as cloud computing, human behavior, and intelligent systems, this book is ideal for engineers, researchers, academicians, and students in the fields of computer science, artificial intelligence, operations research, and intelligent systems.

Between adolescence and adulthood, individuals begin to explore themselves mentally and emotionally in an attempt to figure out who they are and where they fit in society.

The Fight Against Doubt

The lack of public support for climate change policies and refusals to vaccinate children are just two alarming illustrations of the impacts of dissent about scientific claims. Dissent can lead to confusion, false beliefs, and widespread public doubt about highly justified scientific evidence. Even more dangerously, it has begun to corrode the very authority of scientific consensus and knowledge. Deployed aggressively and to political ends, some dissent can intimidate scientists, stymie research, and lead both the public and policymakers to oppose important public policies firmly rooted in science. To criticize dissent is, however, a fraught exercise. Skepticism and fearless debate are key t...

Putting Responsible Research and Innovation Into Practice

This Open Access book builds on the experiences of one of the largest European projects in the domain of responsible Research and Innovation: NewHoRRIzon. It highlights the potential of and opportunity in responsible R&I to conduct innovation in a socially responsible way. Employing the methodology of Social Labs, the book analyses responsible R&I from an experience-based viewpoint and further explores the application of responsible R&I beyond scholarly and industrial interests. The contributors analyze the current European R&I landscape, provide reflection and reconceptualization of its core concepts, and project future challenges in relation to responsible R&I. The book complements the readers' line of work by providing insights on how responsible R&I can be applied by the audience, for example, in their decision-making processes.
