Volume editor Massimiliano Badino, Volume editor Pietro Daniel Omodeo





This book is currently unavailable. Enquire to check if we can source a used copy


| book description |

This volume in political epistemology offers a comprehensive discussion of the multiple applicability of Gramscian concepts and categories to the historical, sociological, and cultural analysis of science. The authors argue that the perspective of hegemony and subalternity allows us critically to assess the political directedness of scientific practices as well as to reflect on the ideological status of disciplines that deal with science at a meta-level - historical, socio-historical, and epistemological. Contributors include: Massimiliano Badino, Javier Balsa, Lino Camprubi, Ana Carneiro, Luis Miguel Carolino, Riccardo Ciavolella, Roger Cooter, Alina-Sandra Cucu, Maria Paula Diogo, Isabel Jimenez Lucena, Annelies Lannoy, Jorge Molero Mesa, Agusti Nieto-Galan, Pietro Daniel Omodeo, Matteo Realdi, Jaume Sastre-Juan, Arne Schirrmacher, Ana Simoes, Carlos Tabernero Holgado, and Carlos Ziller Camenietzki.
