We will highlight the strong contrast between this view and the traditional view of science – still dominant in many areas of society – particularly around matters like the scientific method\, the evolution of science and the role of controversies. We will also discuss a few important phenomena of contemporary science: the productivist view of research evaluation\, the privatization of scientific knowledge and\, finally\, agnotology – the systematic production of ignorance. \nEduard Aibar is professor of Science and Technology Studies at the Arts & Humanities Department\, Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC). He has been the director of the Internet Interdisciplinary Institute and former vice-president for research at UOC. He is currently leading a research group on Open Science and Innovation. His research has focused on the interaction between scientific and technological development and organizational and social change in areas such as eGovernment\, town planning and the Internet. He has recently led two research projects on Wikipedia and the public communication of science. \nFor more info see: https://www.uoc.edu/webs/eaibar \nShare this...FacebookPinterestTwitterLinkedin URL:https://ibecbarcelona.eu/ca/event/ibec-phd-discussions-complementary-skills-session-some-philosophical-sociological-issues-about-present-science-from-the-privatization-of-science-to-the-production-of-ignorance/ LOCATION:IBEC\, floor 11\, Tower I\, Baldiri Reixac 4-8\, 08028 Barcelona\, Spain CATEGORIES:PhD Discussions Complementary Skills Session ORGANIZER;CN="IBEC":MAILTO:www.ibecbarcelona.eu END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
