Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Chapter 3 examines the historical development of contemporary Western attitudes to data and logic in Western science, particularly as it relates to Western social research and science culture. It also continues to critically analyze how these principles have come about throughout the twentieth century. This chapter demonstrates how these principles are socially and culturally developed according to influences on the authors of its narratives. This chapter also focuses on the criticism of logic and the fallibility of methodology in the early twentieth century, the questioning of the nature of systematization and theory, the development of an understanding of power, and the place of power in the development of knowledge production.
