Abstract

Logical positivism and empiricism embody the scientific spirit that
puts science autonomous from culture and society. This can be
questioned from a cultural perspective, which accommodates the
various contexts of human knowledge. In this perspective, science
as a system of human knowledge is deeply rooted and colored by
the socio-cultural context.
