Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex relationship between social science and the concept of value, examining the ways in which the quest for objectivity and scientific rigor can lead to a distorted understanding of human behavior. The author argues that a purely quantitative approach, often championed by social scientists, overlooks the inherent value-laden nature of human action, leading to a reductionist and ultimately inaccurate view of the social world. Drawing on the historical development of science, the author demonstrates how the shift away from teleological explanations, which emphasized purpose and value, towards a focus on measurable quantities, has created a problematic disconnect between the study of the natural world and the study of human society. The book explores the crucial role of values in shaping social phenomena, arguing that institutions, social structures, and individual actions are all deeply intertwined with value commitments. By challenging the dominant scientistic approach to social inquiry, this book offers a powerful critique of the limitations of a value-free perspective, ultimately calling for a more nuanced and humane understanding of the social world, one that recognizes the integral role of values in shaping human behavior and understanding. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
