Contra Köbben. Het wetenschappelijk beeld van de werkelijkheid

Samenvatting

Against Köbben. The Scientific Image of Reality. A rebuttal is presented to criticisms in A. J. F. Köbben's "De wetenschap volgens Peter Kloos" ([Science according to Peter Kloos] Amsterdam Sociologisch Tijdschrift, 1989, 15, 4, 697-703) regarding De boodschap van de vierde illusie ([The Message of the Fourth Illusion] Kloos, P., Leiden: M. Nijhoff, 1988). Köbben omitted several points mentioned in the original work and failed to consider the concepts of scientific objectivity, the use of anthropological knowledge, and positivistic vs dialectic approaches. In Winst (Profit), Köbben replies that Kloos already implicitly recognized the limits to subjectivity in some of his arguments. 14 References. M. Meeks
