Social conflicts are often discussed in the form of public scientific controversies in knowledge societies. This paper analyzes several public controversies tackling issues of gender inequalities between evolutionists (evolutionary psychologists and evolutionary psychologically oriented journalists) and feminists (feminist scientists and journalists) in US media between the early 1980s and the early 2000s. The inquiry focuses on rhetorical strategies of “boundary work” participants used to make their point and strengthen their public authority on the issues discussed. By practicing boundary work, scientists distance themselves from ideology. It is suggested that Antonio Gramsci's works on hegemony and the intellectuals allows to think about intellectual's roles in ideological struggles in a different way: the public scientific controversies analyzed occurred at a time when “traditional” gender and family models had lost their hegemonic role and gender relations were rather thoroughly rearranged. They can thus be understood as part of a larger social struggle for cultural hegemony on issues of gender and sexuality.

公共科学,公共敌人。进化论者与女权主义者之间公共争论中的边界工作和文化霸权

在知识社会中,社会冲突通常以公共科学争议的形式进行讨论。本文分析了1980年代初至2000年代初在美国媒体上解决进化论者(进化心理学家和进化心理学为导向的新闻工作者)与女权主义者(女权主义科学家和新闻工作者)之间的性别不平等问题的几项公共争议。调查侧重于“边界工作”参与者的修辞策略,这些参与者过去曾就所讨论的问题指出观点并增强其公共权威。通过实践边界工作,科学家们远离了意识形态。建议安东尼奥·葛兰西(Antonio Gramsci)关于霸权和知识分子的著作允许以不同的方式思考知识分子在意识形态斗争中的作用:分析的公共科学争议发生在“传统”性别和家庭模式丧失霸权地位,并且性别关系被彻底重新安排的时候。因此,可以将它们理解为在性别和性问题上争取文化霸权的更大的社会斗争的一部分。
