2. How does science supply the data to philosophy for philosophical speculation?

Anestetic [448]2 years ago

Despite wide recognition that speculation is critical for successful science, philosophers have attended little to it. When they have, speculation has been characterized in narrowly epistemic terms: a hypothesis is speculative due to its (lack of) evidential support. These ‘evidence-first’ accounts provide little guidance for what makes speculation productive or egregious, nor how to foster the former while avoiding the latter. I examine how scientists discuss speculation and identify various functions speculations play. On this basis, I develop a ‘function-first’ account of speculation. This analysis grounds a richer discussion of when speculation is egregious and when it is productive, based in both fine-grained analysis of the speculation’s purpose, and what I call the ‘epistemic situation’ scientists face.

What are non civic issues? What makes them non civic? Examples of non civic issues
never [62]

Answer:

Non-civic issues are those social problems whose resolution or treatment does not have the possibility of falling to the state or the government. Thus, these are problematic questions that do not have a public scope, or that may have it, but that their solution starts from the private sphere of society and not from the government or public policies.

Thus, for example, non-civic issues are alcoholism or drug addiction, since its resolution, although it may be promoted by the government, implies a fundamental decision on the part of individuals in their private sphere. Instead, civic issues may be, for example, infrastructure problems in a city, which require the sole will of the government for resolution.
