The code of Concord : Emerson's search for universal laws
- 1994. - 1
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The purpose of this work is to detect a pattern: the concordance of Ethics and Aesthetics, Poetics and Politics in the most influential American thinker of the nineteenth century. It is an attempt to trace a basic concept of the Emersonian transcendentalist doctrine, its development, its philosophical meaning and practical implications. Emerson’s thought is analyzed genetically in search of the generating paradigm, or the set of axioms from which his aesthetic ideas as well as his political reasoning are derived. Such a basic structure, or point of convergence, is sought in the emergence of Emerson’s idea of universal laws that repeat themselves on all levels of reality.A general introduction is given in Part One, where the crisis in Emerson’s life is seen as representing and foreshadowing the deeper existential crisis of modern man.In Part 2 we follow the increasingly skeptical theologian’s turn to science, where he tries to secure a safe secular foundation for ethical good and right and to solve the problem of evil.Part 3 shows how Emerson’s conception of the laws of nature and ethics is applied in his political philosophy.In Part 4, Emerson’s ideas of the arts are seen as corresponding to his views of nature, morality, and individuality.Finally, in Part 5, the ancient and classical nature of Concord philosophy is brought into focus.The book concludes with a short summary.

Ett manifest för processtolkande idéhistoria: 100 teser om tänkandet och dess historieskrivning

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The historiography of "ideas" and its basic conditions are treated under five headings: "Prepatory remarks"; "Cognitive work - its frames of interest and course through interrogative processes [spörsmålsprocesser]"; "The stylisation of thought by means of social interaction; "Thought as situated use of words"; "The responsibility of the thinker and the judicial interrogative process". Starting from a criticism against the blind use of everyday language in methodological self-reflection and historical analysis among intellectual historians - the habit of speech referring to "ideas" as ethereal things, not as human activities - the historical nature of the intellectual historians task is emphasised. A set of analytical tools and heuristic viewpoints are proposed, stressing the social nature of thinking: thought is nothing more or less than human acts and efforts which takes place in historical processes of interaction - processes to be reconstructed by the intellectual historian.

Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The ideal of scientific openness - i.e. the idea that scientific information should be freely accessible to interested parties - is strongly supported throughout the scientific community. At the same time, however, this ideal does not appear to be absolute in the everyday practice of science. In order to get the credit for new scientific advances, scientists often keep information to themselves. Also, it is common practice to withhold information obtained in commissioned research when the scientist has agreed with his or her employer to do so. The secrecy may be intended for ever, as in the military area, but also temporarily until a patent application has been made. The paper explores to what extent such secrecy is undesirable, as seems to be suggested by the ideal of scientific openness. Should this ideal be interpreted as having certain exceptions which make the above-mentioned practices acceptable? Are there, on closer inspection, good arguments for the ideal of scientific openness, and for officially upholding it? Possible versions of the ideal of scientific openness is explored and the issue is found to be rather complex, allowing for wide variations depending on the acting parties, beneficiaries, types of information and moral requirements involved. We case that the arguments usually given in favour of this ideal are weaker than what seems to be generally believed, and that, on closer inspection, they leave plenty of room for exceptions to it. These exceptions only partly cover the actual practice of withholding scientific information, and there may still be good reason to advocate, teach and enforce the ideal of scientific openness within the scientific community.
