Abstract:
The Epistemic Bubble and the Echo Chamber are two phenomena of the Post-Truth area that deny scientific knowledge. The Epistemic Bubble exposes the individual to unbalanced arguments by eliminating knowledge outside the bubble and strengthening trust in the knowledge within it. In contrast, the Echo Chamber does not eliminate the knowledge outside the chamber but makes it unreliable. This unreliability of knowledge outside the room is accompanied by an increase in trust in knowledge inside the Echo Chamber. Both of these phenomena are common in building trust in knowledge within their community and distrust of scientific knowledge. In this paper, using the analytical-descriptive method, a solution to get out of the Epistemic Bubble and the Echo Chamber is presented. In this path, first, the two phenomena of Epistemic Bubbles and Echo Chambers are examined. Then Hoyningen-Huene’s Systematicity theory will be introduced. Systematicity theory shows that in common subjects, scientific knowledge in nine dimensions is more systematic than everyday knowledge. According to this theory, systematicity means that scientific knowledge is not purely random or accidental, is not chaotic, not completely unplanned nor unordered, and is methodological. The results show that the comparative nature of this theory helps to distinguish between knowledge in the Epistemic Bubble or Echo Chamber and Science. This theory will help us find a way to check the reliability of the acquired knowledge and make it possible for the person to get out of the Epistemic bubble and the Echo Chamber.
Machine summary:
Systematization of Scientific Knowledge, a Solution for Exiting the Epistemic Bubble and Echo Chamber Mohammad Ali Ashouri Keismi PhD student in Philosophy of Art, Allameh Tabataba'i University, Tehran, Iran o Maryam Parvizi PhD student in Comparative Philosophy, Allameh Tabataba'i University, Tehran, Iran Abstract The epistemic bubble and echo chamber are two phenomena of the post-truth era in which scientific knowledge is denied.
The results of the present research show that the theory of systematization, without falling into the traps of the flaws of modern solutions, is able to help the epistemic factor distinguish between scientific knowledge and everyday knowledge and create the possibility of exiting them.
Post-truth, epistemic bubble, echo chamber, systematization, science, everyday knowledge Corresponding author: M_ashori@atu.
" In this theory, the question "What is science?" is used in the sense of "What is the difference between scientific knowledge and everyday knowledge regarding a specific subject?" (Hoyningen-Huene, 2008: 168).
According to this theory, scientific knowledge is more systematic in 9 dimensions than other forms of knowledge: description, explanation, prediction, defense of knowledge claims, critical discourse, epistemic connection, the ideal of completeness, knowledge production, and knowledge representation (Hoyningen-Huene, 2013: 27).
To this end, we examined a theory in the field of philosophy of science titled systematization; however, so far no evidence has been presented to know whether this theory can be applied in the epistemic bubble or echo chamber to distinguish between the knowledge of these societies and scientific knowledge, and consequently obtain a solution for exiting these societies?
