Europäische Wissenschaftskulturen und politische Ordnungen in der Moderne (1890 - 1970)

More about the book

At the beginning of the 20th century, two revolutionary processes intersected in European industrialized societies. The sciences became a central force for interpreting the world, and the democratization of modern life became a key determinant of the political and cultural order. These processes turned Europe into a laboratory for very different interconnections between scientific self-observation and ideas about polity.
