Our main focus in this paper is on the social sciences. We propose a quadrant of different cultural–scientific stances from which the study of social phenomena is possible, based on the emic–etic dimension pertaining to the study of culture from contrasting perspectives. Although the emic–etic distinction is normal y applied in fields within the science of culture, it is proposed here that the distinction is in some ways germane to scientific practice in general, making it amenable for use in a culture of science(CoS) programme. The four perspectives that emerge from the quadrant are illustrated using exemplars. Different aspects of CoS—that is, scientific practice, scientific conventions and representations of science—are then discussed in further detail, including in two tables illustrating points of convergence and divergence between the East and West when it comes to different aspects of CoS.展开更多

文摘To share and utilize data effectively for collaborative work,a common understanding of the knowledge behind the data,including its context and meaning,is a fundamental requirement.This paper focuses on the gaps that hinder common understanding between the real world and the data space,acting as barriers between systems,organizations,data spaces,and disciplines.To understand the core reasons and devise strategies for bridging the gap,the author has endeavored to synthesize a case study of material data activities from two perspectives:diachronic and synchronic,which is framed into a two-step process,involving the establishment of intersubjectivity among experts and interobjectivity among materials/substances data.As a result,the author has formulated an action plan for the digitization of engineering materials,encompassing tacit knowledge,know-how,and intellectual property rights to establish a foundation for their use with traceability,interoperability,and reusability.In order to create a conceptual framework that enhances a productive ecosystem facilitated by networked materials and substance databases,this plan is conclusively based on two key steps:fostering interactions among experts rooted in substances and materials and standardizing digitized data related to substances/materials based on their geospatial structural information.
