- Title
THE DIAGNOSIS OF SCIENTISM: ERIC VOEGELIN AND MICHAEL POLANYI ON SCIENCE AND PHILOSOPHY.
- Authors
Cordner, Colin
- Abstract
The purpose here shall be to highlight and unpack certain key dimensions of both Michael Polanyi's and Eric Voegelin's diagnoses of scientism as an ideological movement. In doing so, it is my aspiration to distinguish scientism from science much as one might distinguish disease from health. The comparison shall be of an ideal of a closed, fully objective and self-contained system of explicit rules and propositions, to the open, active strivings to understand the real of a responsible and embodied person.
