Protest voor de dieren eten te geven
Scientific arguments against feeding:
1. fodder taken by the strongest animals
2. fighting and stress in herd
3. early rut: faster population growth
4. digestion switches off from winter condition
5. hay has too much protein
6. feeding makes the animals aid dependent on humans
Maar alsnog gingen ze de dieren voeden. Vanuit
wetenschappelijk oogpunt is het bijvoeren van dieren
onverstandig.
Follow up: meer protesten
De status van wetenschappelijke kennis staat

“Post -truth society”
pre-modern society: given truth
modern society: found truth
Postmodern society: made truth
Post-postmodern society: trust as a marketable
product.
Definition of science
Science is ‘the intellectual and practical activity encompassing the systematic study of the structure
and behavior of the physical and natural world through observation and experiment’
Research is ‘the systematic investigation into a study of materials and sources in order to establish
facts and reach new conclusions.’
Science is the more or less systematic search for knowledge by experts, who react to earlier
knowledge and share their ideas with others
Eller on science
Scientific knowledge inexorably “progress”, that is, each day science has more and better
knowledge that the day before.
scientific knowledge is superior together forms of knowledge because of its “method”; and
scientists are particularly conscious of both
Is social science a science?
pressure = number of inhabitants * agitation / economic resources
Conclusie
premise of this course: science is, despite all its flaws, the best way of gaining insight into the
world
status of science seems to be declining slowly
but still high and it has received a boost by the corona crisis
science is an institutionalised practice
, exact sciences have a higher status, but social science is in some respects fundamentally
different because of the agency of our research subjects

o ‘“If a test of civilization be sought, none can be so sure as

strongest. Tried by this test, the American civilization
appears to be of a lower order than might have been
