value neutrality in science  

Definición

  • The claim of the value neutrality of science is that scientific knowledge neither supports nor undermines any value judgment and that accepting a scientific theory in accordance with proper epistemic criteria is compatible with holding any viable value outlook. The claim is consistent with science being “value relevant”: Scientific knowledge may inform the means to bring about goals that are judged valuable, and priorities of research may be set by the goal of producing such knowledge.
