Contends that philosophers of science, technology, & society have failed to properly distinguish between the contexts of discovery & justification of scientific knowledge. Deconstruction of the discovery/justification distinction has historically been used in England to assert the intellectual dominance of universities over trade schools, by the Nazis to discredit scientific knowledge discovered by ethnic minorities, & most recently by the historicist strain of the philosophy of science, which measures scientific knowledge in part based on its origination within a certain research tradition. The consequence of the historicist view is an exclusive, independent view of knowledge that rejects interaction among disciplines, traditions or cultures. It is suggested that philosophers of science reconceptualize notions of discovery & justification to remove the exclusivity of use now granted to a research tradition for having made the discovery first in order to broaden communication & exchange of information across traditions, disciplines, & cultures.
