Dewey哲學에 있어서 眞理에 關한 考察 = A Study of truth in Dewey's Philosophy

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Early in his career, Dewey started developing a new theory of inquiry, which he called instrumental or experimental logic. Dewey claimed that philosophers had lost touch with the actual methods of inguiry practiced by the experimental sciences. The function of instrumental logic is to study the methods by which we most successfuly gain and warrant our knowledge. On the basis of this investigation, instrumental logic could specify regulative principles for the conduct of further inquiry. Dewey's theory of inquiry as an ongoing self-corrective process and his view of knowledge as that which is warranted through inquiry both differ radically from many traditional theories of inquiry and knowledge. Dewey thought of this theory as an alternative to the views of those philosophers who have claimed that there is an epistemological given that is indubitable and known with certainty. According to this epistemological model, some truths are considered to be absolutely certain, indubitable, or incorrigible. Knowledge and behavior are not seperated. Both are concepts derived from the man's satisfied and harmonious actual life. The value of knowledge lies in achived results and the usefulness of meeting men's need.
