The problem of the Separation of Epistemology from the “Social Life”
The article is devoted to the analysis of the foundations of social epistemology and to the refutation of the separation of scientifi c knowledge from the “social life”. Communication between scientists interpreted in a new way in search of the “standards that work.” On the basis of works K. Mainzer and E. Moren article offers to consideration “complexity” as the main tendency of the present and underlines ontological value of uncertainty. The complicated information processing model with a support on corporal roots of sense (M. Johnson) is inserted into the bases of a social epistemology. The author pays attention to R. Dokinz’s position according to which the cognitive structures and strategy of behavior are caused by the hidden genetic processes. Their transition to the level of the social is designated by the
concept “meme”. The process of generating of new knowledge is presented as decoding, “the ability to unleash the matrix and optionally to connect in new combinations” (M. Petrov). The original idea of broad interpretation of the collective
agent of cognition as consisting of four types is used. The author indicates that deformations associated with invasion of virtual forms of interactions, creating subontology of reality and changing “self-control type”. In conclusion, the author
emphasizes that “Big Science” is necessary to realize the correlation generated by its technology and human values, and that the essence of the upcoming seventh technological structure must be recognized socio-humanitarian technologies.
