Document Summary

Herman paul & lecture 5: explain how values and scholarly research relate to one another by answering the questions, explain weber"s postulate of value freedom. Four claims: values may be the subject of scholarly study. Racism; socialist values; free-market ideology: values may influence the choice of research themes. Marginalised people (aborigines; descendants of enslaved people); studying persecutions; history of gender inequality. You might want to set things right (history from below): values may play a role in the application of scientific insights. Popularisation of history (making it interesting for more people); policy of academic integrity to prevent fraud and plagiarism: but scholarship itself must be practised as neutrally as possible, without any appeal to moral or political values. This last was linked to weber"s rigorous separation between sein (that which is the case in the world) and sollen (that which people ought to do).
