Nauka i technika w dobie globalizacji

This article discusses various accounts of science and technology as well as their interrelations. The traditional approach to science and technology in the classical philosophy of science is contrasted with a relatively new approach rooted in reconstructions of laboratory practices. Subsequently, both approaches are considered in the context of globalization. The analysis of globalization licenses the claim that any reliable science and technology studies must allow for Stefan Amsterdamski’s concept of the ideal of scientific knowledge.
