STS and the Importance of being a Collective: Gill Haddow Talks with Barry Barnes
Engaging Science, Technology, and Society Pub Date : 2018-07-12 , DOI: 10.17351/ests2018.232
Gill Haddow , Barry Barnes

Professor Barry Barnes was a key, founding member of the early Science Studies Unit (SSU) at the University of Edinburgh. In this interview with Gill Haddow he reflects on what is was like to be part of this fertile period of scholarly enterprise with David Bloor and others and describes some of the key influences that effected his thinking such as Thomas Kuhn. The eighties were a time of political unrest and SSU, was not outwardly political in vision but was not immune. The Science Wars also had detrimental effects for some. The origin of the concept of “boot-strapped induction,” or feedback loops was also being brought into existence with the idea that scientific knowledge was both self-referential and self-validating. At the center lay the most basic and enduring tenets of Barnes’ thought and that was the collective and how people could never truly be independent. A reflection by Gill Haddow follows the interview.

STS和成为集体的重要性:吉尔·哈多(Gill Haddow)与巴里·巴恩斯(Barry Barnes)交谈

巴里·巴恩斯(Barry Barnes)教授是爱丁堡大学早期科学研究部门(SSU)的重要创始成员。在与吉尔·哈多(Gill Haddow)的访谈中,他反思了大卫·布洛尔(David Bloor)和其他人在这个学术事业的肥沃时期的一部分,并描述了影响他的思想的一些关键影响力,例如托马斯·库恩(Thomas Kuhn)。八十年代是政治动荡的时期,SSU在视觉上不是外在的政治,而是不能幸免。科学战争对某些人也有不利影响。“自举引导”或“反馈回路”概念的起源也随着科学知识既具有自我参照性又具有自我验证性的思想而存在。核心是巴恩斯思想的最基本和持久的宗旨,那就是集体,以及人们永远不可能真正独立的想法。采访之后,吉尔·哈多(Gill Haddow)进行了反思。
