Isi artikel

This article considers the question of intelligent design in relation to the principles of scientific inquiry and academic freedom. The authors examine the structure of research as a task of events to advance knowledge; an individual, interpretive process; and a social/public discourse. Using this framework, they consider how the advancement of intelligent design has occurred outside the traditional structure of knowledge production in the academy. They consider the influence on ideology as well as the public role in scientific knowledge. By enabling ideologies to operate outside of the balance of scientific inquiry and peer review, the process of knowledge production is reduced to a biased power struggle manipulated by personal agendas.
