Φύλο και επιστήμες: η συμβολή της Sandra Harding
No full textΗ εργασία αυτή παρουσιάζει τις θέσεις της Sandra Harding για το κοινωνικό φύλο και την επιστήμη, για τις σχέσεις μεταξύ τους και για την ανασυγκρότηση της επιστήμης μέσα από το φεμινισμό δεδομένου ότι μία από τις βασικές θέσεις της Harding υποστηρίζει ότι είναι περισσότερο από αναγκαίο να αφιερώσουμε χρόνο για να δούμε την κριτική φεμινιστική σκέψη και πρακτική, τη σχέση με τον κυρίαρχο πατριαρχικό λόγο και τους ηγεμονικούς τρόπους οργάνωσης και παραγωγής της γνώσης.Το παρόν κείμενο αναλύει και συζητά την πρόταση της Harding για τη μεγιστοποίηση της αντικειμενικότητας της επιστήμης με τη συμμετοχή κοινωνικών ομάδων και πολιτικών κινημάτων στις διεργασίες και επεξεργασίες της, αφού το ερώτημα δεν είναι πώς να εξαλειφθεί η πολιτική από την επιστήμη αλλά ποιες πολιτικές προωθούν και ποιες εμποδίζουν τη γνώση και για ποιες κοινωνικές ομάδες γίνεται αυτό.
Standpoint Epistemology in Feminist Philosophy of Science: An Analysis of Sandra Harding\u27s Thought
No full textThis article discusses feminist philosophy of science with a focus on analyzing Sandra Harding\u27s standpoint epistemology. Standpoint epistemology critiques the claim of objectivity in traditional science by emphasizing the unique insights that can be gained from marginalized groups, such as women, in scientific inquiry. Thinkers like Harding, Evelyn Fox Keller, and Donna Haraway argue that the perspectives of marginalized groups can reveal hidden biases and reshape our understanding of scientific reality. However, this approach has faced criticism, particularly regarding the risk of epistemological relativism, as highlighted by scholars such as Richard Rorty and Susan Haack. This study critically examines Harding\u27s standpoint epistemology from the perspective of Islamic philosophy, particularly through Syed Naquib al-Attas\u27s views on the philosophy of science. Islamic epistemology emphasizes the importance of integrating reason and revelation, prioritizing absolute truth derived from divine revelation, which contrasts with the relativism inherent in standpoint epistemology. By analyzing Harding\u27s critique through the lens of Islamic philosophical principles, this study aims to offer a more balanced and objective framework for understanding the role of social context in the production of scientific knowledge. The findings of this research contribute to the ongoing debate on objectivity and relativism in science, proposing that while standpoint epistemology offers valuable insights into social biases, it must be carefully balanced to avoid undermining the pursuit of universal truth.

Artikel ini membahas filsafat sains feminis dengan fokus pada analisis standpoint epistemology Sandra Harding. Epistemologi sudut pandang mengkritik klaim objektivitas dalam sains tradisional dengan menekankan wawasan unik yang dapat diperoleh dari kelompok-kelompok terpinggirkan, seperti perempuan, dalam penelitian ilmiah. Tokoh-tokoh seperti Harding, Evelyn Fox Keller, dan Donna Haraway berpendapat bahwa perspektif dari kelompok yang terpinggirkan dapat mengungkap bias tersembunyi dan mengubah pemahaman kita tentang realitas ilmiah. Namun, pendekatan ini mendapat kritik, terutama mengenai risiko relativisme epistemologis, sebagaimana diutarakan oleh para sarjana seperti Richard Rorty dan Susan Haack. Penelitian ini mengkaji secara kritis epistemologi sudut pandang Harding dari perspektif filsafat Islam, khususnya melalui pandangan Syed Naquib al-Attas tentang filsafat sains. Epistemologi Islam menekankan pentingnya integrasi antara akal dan wahyu, serta mengutamakan kebenaran absolut yang bersumber dari wahyu ilahi, yang berseberangan dengan relativisme dalam epistemologi sudut pandang. Dengan menganalisis kritik Harding dari sudut pandang prinsip-prinsip filsafat Islam, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menawarkan kerangka kerja yang lebih seimbang dan objektif dalam memahami peran konteks sosial dalam produksi pengetahuan ilmiah. Temuan penelitian ini berkontribusi pada perdebatan tentang objektivitas dan relativisme dalam sains, dengan mengusulkan bahwa meskipun epistemologi sudut pandang memberikan wawasan penting tentang bias sosial, hal ini perlu diseimbangkan agar tidak melemahkan pencarian kebenaran universal

An Interview with Sandra Harding
No full textHarding’s position has been critiqued as more postmodern than feminist, as viable without nasty entanglements in feminism, as too concerned with established Eurocentric, scientific discourses, and as appealing to foundational innocence by her concern with realism. But what seems to drive Harding’s choices more than anything is a conscious attempt to be effective in intervening in existing systems of power, whether empiricist and postmodern. By taking this position, Harding undertakes a difficult task. Its difficulty, however, is compensated for by the conversations she generates. As a voice not restricted to one intellectual school, Harding demands attention from many with opposing views and provokes scholarly exchanges (arguments) that would not have happened otherwise. So even as we question what may be called Harding\u27s postmodern spin on logical positivism, we respect her advocacy for change and admire her candor and integrity
Objectivity and diversity: another logic of scientific research
No full textWorries about scientific objectivity seem never-ending. Social critics and philosophers of science have argued that invocations of objectivity are often little more than attempts to boost the status of a claim, while calls for value neutrality may be used to suppress otherwise valid dissenting positions. Objectivity is used sometimes to advance democratic agendas, at other times to block them; sometimes for increasing the growth of knowledge, at others to resist it. Sandra Harding is not ready to throw out objectivity quite yet. For all of its problems, she contends that objectivity is too powerful a concept simply to abandon. In Objectivity and Diversity, Harding calls for a science that is both more epistemically adequate and socially just, a science that would ask: How are the lives of the most economically and politically vulnerable groups affected by a particular piece of research? Do they have a say in whether and how the research is done? Should empirically reliable systems of indigenous knowledge count as "real science"? Ultimately, Harding argues for a shift from the ideal of a neutral, disinterested science to one that prizes fairness and responsibility
