The Science Wars: Responses to a Marriage Failed

Abstract

Les « guerres de la science », ou l'attaque defensive contre la « fuite de la science et de la raison », sont dirigees contre des etudes recentes qui assimilent la science a une activite influencee par les forces sociales et politiques. L'interet intellectuel pour la science de la part de non-scientifiques s'est beaucoup developpe depuis plus de vingt ans, en partie comme le resultat de la croissante visibilite de la science dans la culture, en partie comme prise de conscience de ses implications sociales importantes. Certains scientifiques considerent cette approche sociale constructiviste comme etant une attaque hostile contre la science et ils repondent agressivement. L'A. s'interroge sur les raisons de ces attitudes defensives, du trouble developpe envers ces approches qui demythifient la science, sur le pourquoi de la problematique d'explorer le fosse entre la verite et la connaissance et de demander « comment savons nous ? ». L'A. apporte des elements de reponse a ces « guerres de la science » dans le contexte americain
