EDITION MODERNE POSTMODERNE A HEATED DEBATE -...

Ever since climate change has been identified as one of the most significant challenges of
humanity  climate change deniers have repeatedly tried to discredit the work of scientists. To
show how these processes work  Maria M. Sojka examines three ideals about how science should
operate. These ideals concern the understanding of uncertainties  the relationship between
models and data  and the role of values in science. Their widespread presence in the public
understanding of science makes it easy for political and industrial stakeholders to undermine
inconvenient research. To address this issue  Sojka analyses the importance of tacit knowledge
in scientific practice and the question of what defines an expert.
