Abstract

Der Begriff des Wissens geht davon aus, dass Tatbestände als 'wahr' und 'gerechtfertigt' angesehen werden. Die Gründe für solche Überzeugungen liegen in der Gewissheit der eigenen Wahrnehmung sowie in der Kommunikation dieser Wahrnehmungen. Beide Bedingungen befinden sich gegenwärtig im Umbruch: Unsere sinnliche Wahrnehmung wird durch Medien und Sensorsysteme gestützt, und die Verständigung über solcherart erzeugte Wahrnehmungen wird in wachsendem Maße telematisch kommuniziert. Die tendenziell globale Ausweitung der kollaborativen Erzeugung des Wissens durch computergestützte Netzwerke irritiert nicht nur die Vertrauensverhältnisse, die den Wissensprozessen zugrunde liegen, sondern auch die Struktur und Funktionen des Wissens selbst.

Abstract

A striking characteristic of modern knowledge society is the rapid spread of certain ideas and concepts back and forth from everyday to scientific discourses, and across many different contexts of meaning. This book opens up a new road to the study of these 'dynamics of knowledge'. Sociologists of knowledge and recently evolutionary theorists have offered explanations that either attribute social attention to particular ideas or shifts of meaning to the predominance of certain groups. Maasen and Weingart, however, offer a radical new explanation that explains knowledge dynamics by reference to the interaction between metaphors and discourses. The study focuses on three major case studies: - The spread of Darwin's phrase 'struggle for existence'; - the reception of Thomas Kuhn's Structure of Scientific Revolutions in the sciences and humanities; - the diffusion of the concept of 'chaos' from scientific to everyday discourses. In its innovative theoretical approach (called 'metaphor analysis') and rich empirical analysis the book will be of interest for social and cognitive scientists alike
