It seems that since 2012 Rio +20 Conference, the world has been moving away from science based perfect market thinking, a moved that apparently has been helped by the confusion created by the 2012 green market paradigm shift avoidance move or the green market shift avoidance period 2012-2024, and this raises the question, Is science based on a political definition science?
What do you think? Yes, why? No, why not?
Science is not inherently political; political factors can influence its application and interpretation. Let’s break it down:
· Climate Change: The climate change debate involves scientific evidence and political interests. Political considerations influence policymakers’ decisions on environmental regulations.
· Healthcare Research: Funding for medical research, drug development, and public health initiatives can be politically driven.
· Education: Curriculum choices, including science education, can be influenced by political ideologies.
4. Scientific Integrity: Scientists strive for objectivity, but biases can creep in due to personal beliefs, funding sources, or societal pressures. Peer review and transparency help maintain scientific integrity.
In summary, science remains grounded in empirical evidence, but its application and societal impact intersect with politics. It’s essential to recognize this interplay and promote evidence-based decision-making.
Good day Jorge, thank you for taking the time to write. Your comment seems to be focused on the politics around science, But the question is directly related what science is and WHAT IS NOT.
You listed there the core aspects about science and what ever does not meet those aspects is NOT science.
And the question is "Is science based on a political definition science?", do you have a view?.
If yes, why? If No, why not?
Science is all knowledge obtained through observation and the systematic and reasoned study of nature, society, and thought. Science is fundamental to understanding the world around us and improving our lives. Its objective is to discover the laws that govern the phenomena of reality and understand and explain them. It uses verifiable norms and criteria to study phenomena based on observation, formulation of hypotheses, experimentation, and conclusions. It aims to understand the general principles that govern phenomena, from mathematics to natural or social sciences. It values the knowledge accumulated from previous research and considers the background as a starting point. It produces knowledge necessary to interpret reality and stimulate human and social development.
I do appreciate you take the time to write Jorge, but the question is: Is science based on a political definition science?
It is a simple Yes and why answer or a No and why not answer.
If you do not have a view on the answer, then politely let's leave it here.
Respectfully yours;
Lucio
