Three Theoretical Forms of"Well-Ordered Science"in Science Practice Governance
"Well-ordered science"is an ideal model for public deliberation in the context of the theory of the democratization of sci-ence.The science in"well-ordered science"emphasizes the justification of science within the modest scientific realism and the aim for the value-loaden science.It also signifies the shift in science practice,transitioning from the pursuit of individual good to collec-tive good."Well-ordered science"is intended to reveal the well order of science practice in the holistic dimension.The article con-structs a new interpretative framework,tracing the evolution of Kitcher's discourse on the democratization of science,and invol-ving three intrinsic forms,namely,well-ordered norms of value in science,well-ordered processes of science research,and well-ordered science engagement.These three forms are interconnected and unified in Kitcher's theoretical construction and path to re-alizing the democratization of science practice.The three theoretical forms implicated in"well-ordered science"help analyze the transformation of the scientific picture embedded in society during the era of big science,offering fresh and more multidimensional perspectives.
