Theory of Perspectivist Science

A framework for understanding science as always from some perspective—never from nowhere, always from somewhere. Perspectivist Science recognizes that all scientific knowing is situated: shaped by the researcher's location, values, training, and commitments. There's no view from nowhere, no value-free science. But situated doesn't mean biased—it means located. And locations can be compared, combined, critiqued. Perspectivist Science studies how perspective shapes research, how to integrate multiple perspectives, and how to build scientific knowledge that acknowledges its own situatedness.

Theory of Perspectivist Science "You think science is objective, value-free. Perspectivist Science says: science is done by people with perspectives—shaped by funding, culture, training. That's not a flaw; it's the reality. The question isn't whether science has perspective—it's whether we know what it is. Perspective isn't bias; it's the condition of doing science."

Perspectivist Demarcation Theory of Science

A model arguing that demarcation is always from a particular perspective (theoretical, cultural, historical). There is no perspective‑free way to distinguish science from pseudoscience. Different scientific communities, or even individuals, may legitimately draw boundaries differently based on their epistemic values. Perspectivist demarcation does not collapse into relativism; it insists that each perspective be transparent and justified. It highlights how claims of “pseudoscience” often serve to protect orthodox perspectives.

Perspectivist Demarcation Theory of Science Example: “Perspectivist demarcation theory showed that from a Popperian view, psychoanalysis is pseudoscientific, but from a pragmatist perspective, it offers clinical insights—both are valid demarcations relative to different goals.”

Theory of Perspectivist Sciences

A framework for understanding the plurality of sciences as arising from different perspectives—each science offering a particular view of reality, none capturing everything. Perspectivist Sciences recognizes that physics sees the world as matter in motion; biology sees it as living systems; psychology sees it as minded experience. Each perspective is valid, each partial, each revealing something the others miss. Perspectivist Sciences studies how these perspectives relate, how they complement and sometimes conflict, and how multiple perspectives together give richer understanding than any single one.

Theory of Perspectivist Sciences "You want one science to explain everything. Perspectivist Sciences says: impossible. Physics explains matter; biology explains life; psychology explains mind. Each perspective reveals something the others miss. Truth isn't in any single perspective; it's in the conversation between them. Perspectivism isn't relativism—it's recognizing that reality is too rich for one view."
