Buku akses terbuka ini – seperti yang tersirat dalam judulnya – mengeksplorasi beberapa akar sejarah dan konsekuensi epistemologis dari perspektivisme. Perspektivisme baru-baru ini muncul dalam filsafat sains sebagai posisi baru yang menarik dalam perdebatan antara realisme ilmiah dan anti-realisme. Namun, ada lebih banyak hal tentang perspektivisme daripada yang selama ini disarankan oleh …
Romanian education policy was notoriously plagued by instability and a tendency to escape the normal policymaking cycle via top-down highly politicised reforms. After almost three decades, a new initiative by the President of Romania attempts to promote a more inclusive style of policymaking that would ensure wider societal support to upcoming educational reforms. The purpose of this articl…
