Journal Article
The aim of belief and the aim of science
2019
Overview
I argue that the aim of belief and the aim of science are both knowledge. The 'aim of belief' is to be identified with the product of a properly functioning cognitive system. Science is an institution that is the social, functional analogue of a cognitive system, and its aim is the same as that of belief. In both cases it is knowledge rather than true belief that is the product of proper functioning.
Argumento en este artículo que el objetivo de la creencia y el objetivo de la ciencia son ambos conocimiento. El \"objetivo de la creencia\" debe identificarse con el producto de un sistema cognitivo que funcione correctamente. La ciencia es una institución que es el análogo social y funcional de un sistema cognitivo, y su objetivo es el mismo que el de la creencia. En ambos casos, es el conocimiento, más que la creencia verdadera, el producto del correcto funcionamiento.
