摘要

赫伯特-梅尔腾斯的著作及其提出的历史思想的影响超越了任何单一学科的历史。因此,本文探讨了三大问题:(1) 梅尔腾斯在其改变领域的著作《现代数学》(Moderne-Sprache-Mathematik,1990 年)及其他作品中,将数学现代主义重新概念化为一种认识论和文化现象,其方式有可能跨越和超越科学,并将科学现代主义和文化现代主义联系起来;(2) 通过 "技术官僚现代主义 "的概念,将其工作扩展到现代性历史本身;(3) 他对国家社会主义时期科学和技术史学的开创性贡献,重点是他对数学、自然科学和技术在纳粹时期或之后在道德或政治上是 "中立 "的说法的批判,以及他对数学家和其他科学家事实上调动自身及其知识支持纳粹主义核心政治项目的反驳。作为理解科学与政治关系的指南,梅尔腾斯的著作过去和现在都是对许多追随科技史 "文化转向 "的人所采取的政治禁欲主义的一种抗衡。从最广泛的意义上讲,这篇文章是对梅尔腾斯本人所追求的具有文化相关性和政治参与性的科学和人文学科史学的呼吁。

Modernism, modernity, and politics in the general history of science: Implications of Herbert Mehrtens' work, from "Vienna 1900" to the Nazi era, and beyond.

Herbert Mehrtens' work and the implications of the historical ideas he advanced went beyond the history of any single discipline. The article therefore addresses three broad issues: (1) Mehrtens' reconceptualization of mathematical modernism, in his field-changing book Moderne-Sprache-Mathematik (1990) and other works, as an epistemic and cultural phenomenon in a way that could potentially reach across and also beyond the sciences and also link scientific and cultural modernisms; (2) the extension of his work to the history of modernity itself via the concept of "technocratic modernism"; (3) his seminal contributions to the historiography of the sciences and technology during the National Socialist period, focusing on his critique of claims that mathematics, the natural sciences and technology were morally or politically "neutral" during or after the Nazi era, and on his counter-claim that mathematicians and other scientists had in fact mobilized themselves and their knowledge in support of Nazism's central political projects. Taken as a guide for understanding science-politics relations in general, Mehrtens' work was and remains a counterweight to the political abstinence adopted by many who have followed the "cultural turn" in history of science and technology. In the broadest sense, the article is a plea for the culturally relevant and politically engaged historiography of the sciences and humanities that Mehrtens himself pursued.

期刊介绍: Science in Context is an international journal edited at The Cohn Institute for the History and Philosophy of Science and Ideas, Tel Aviv University, with the support of the Van Leer Jerusalem Institute. It is devoted to the study of the sciences from the points of view of comparative epistemology and historical sociology of scientific knowledge. The journal is committed to an interdisciplinary approach to the study of science and its cultural development - it does not segregate considerations drawn from history, philosophy and sociology. Controversies within scientific knowledge and debates about methodology are presented in their contexts.
