Herbert A. Simon (19162001) mostró un indudable interés por la Filosofía de la Ciencia, que se plasmó en publicaciones que cubrían desde el plano general de la Ciencia hasta la vertiente particular de la Economía. Al profundizar en el estudio de esta disciplina, prestó particular atención a los procesos de pensamiento que emplean los agentes al tomar decisiones. Esto le llevó a ofrecer una alternativa de índole epistemológica y metodológica a la tendencia dominante en Economía (la concepción neoclásica), que articuló sobre la base de la observación de la experiencia de la toma de decisiones económica y la racionalidad limitada (bounded rationality), que reemplaza a la racionalidad maximizadora. Por estos trabajos recibió el Premio Nobel de Economía en 1978. El presente volumen tiene su origen en las diversas entrevistas entre el editor del volumen y el autor estudiado. En efecto, los temas de la racionalidad, la historicidad y la predicción centraron las conversaciones de Wenceslao J. González y Herbert A. Simon. Así, este libro es, de hecho, el resultado de un Proyecto de Investigación comentado con el propio Simon en 1999. La indagación es netamente filosóficometodológica, de modo que deja abiertas otras líneas de trabajo. El libro consta de cuatro partes: I) Contexto; II) Racionalidad; III) Historicidad; y IV) Predicción. Con ellas se busca perfilar claramente el planteamiento de Simon sobre cada uno de los temas tratados, pero buscando siempre que haya puntos de contraste que puedan contribuir a dejar nítidos los contornos de su posición y, en su caso, sus limitaciones y las posibles alternativas.

This book develops a philosophico-methodological analysis of prediction and its role in economics. Prediction plays a key role in economics in various ways. It can be seen as a basic science, as an applied science and in the application of this science. First, it is used by economic theory in order to test the available knowledge. In this regard, prediction has been presented as the scientific test for economics as a science. Second, prediction provides a content regarding the possible future that can be used for prescription in applied economics. Thus, it can be used as a guide for economic policy, i.e., as knowledge concerning the future to be employed for the resolution of specific problems. Third, prediction also has a role in the application of this science in the public arena. This is through the decision-making of the agents — individuals or organizations — in quite different settings, both in the realm of microeconomics and macroeconomics. Within this context, the research is organized in five parts, which discuss relevant aspects of the role of prediction in economics: I) The problem of prediction as a test for a science; II) The general orientation in methodology of science and the problem of prediction as a scientific test; III) The methodological framework of social sciences and economics: Incidence for prediction as a test; IV) Epistemology and methodology of economic prediction: Rationality and empirical approaches and V) Methodological aspects of economic prediction: From description to prescription. Thus, the book is of interest for philosophers and economists as well as policy-makers seeking to ascertain the roots of their performance. The style used lends itself to a wide audience.

Las “Ciencias de Diseño” engloban un conjunto de conocimientos específicos que son elaborados para resolver problemas concretos que surgen en el entorno humano. Esa expresión identifica un campo nuevo del saber -de carácter artificial- y abarca también una serie de prácticas científicas propias, que son diferentes de las utilizadas en otras Ciencias empíricas. Las Ciencias de Diseño comportan así un ámbito temático novedoso, que dilata la actividad científica en cuanto que -al hacer diseños- está encaminada a metas relacionadas con lo hecho por los humanos (human-made). Consta el libro de cuatro partes, que profundizan en los elementos enunciados en el título: I) Las Ciencias de Diseño en el marco de las Ciencias de lo Artificial; II) Modelos de racionalidad limitada para las Ciencias de Diseño; III) Tarea de la predicción en las Ciencias de Diseño; y IV) Cometido de la prescripción en las Ciencias de Diseño. Wenceslao J. González es Catedrático de Lógica y Filosofía de la Ciencia en la Universidad de A Coruña. Ha editado 22 volúmenes sobre Filosofía y Metodología de la Ciencia. Ha sido profesor visitante en la Universidad de St. Andrews (Escocia), la Universidad de Münster (Alemania) y la London School of Economics (Inglaterra). Como Visiting Fellow, ha realizado estan-cias de investigación en la Universidad de Pittsburgh (Estados Unidos). Asimismo, ha pronunciado confe-rencias en diversas Universidades extranjeras, entre ellas Pittsburgh, Stanford, Quebec y Helsinki. Ha par-ticipado en numerosos Congresos internacionales, incluyendo los celebrados en las Universidades de Upsala (Suecia), Nueva Gales del Sur (Australia), Bolonia (Italia), Canterbury (Nueva Zelanda) y Pekín (China).

La toma de decisiones es una cuestión central en la actividad humana. El decidir seleccionando medios y fines es una necesidad vital, tanto para los agentes individuales como para los grupos sociales. Por eso, la toma de decisiones constituye un ámbito de estudio que afecta de lleno a la configuración de las Ciencias Sociales y a las Ciencias de lo Artificial. Investigar cómo interviene la racionalidad en la toma de decisiones resulta particularmente importante. Ahí intervienen factores de tipo cognitivo, práctico y evaluativo. Porque los agentes han de elegir medios y fines según los conocimientos que poseen. Esta elección sirve de base para pautas de actuación y está modulada por una serie de valores. Se analiza aquí la contribución realizada por la Teoría de la Decisión de Herbert A. Simon, debido a su relevancia para las Ciencias Sociales y las Ciencias de lo Artificial (en particular, para la Economía y la Documentación). El libro se estructura en cuatro partes: I) el estudio de la racionalidad humana; II) la estructura de la toma de decisiones; III) la racionalidad y la toma de decisiones en el ámbito de lo artificial; y IV) la racionalidad en la toma de decisiones ante el entorno organizativo y los factores no cognitivos. María G. Bonome es Doctora por la Universidad de A Coruña, donde imparte docencia en el ámbito de las Ciencias de la Documentación. Ha realizado estancias de investigación en la London School of Economics y en el Center for Philosophy of Science de la Universidad de Pittsburgh. Ha participado en varios proyectos de investigación relacionados con las Ciencias de Diseño y ha presentado trabajos en Congresos internacionales. Entre sus publicaciones figuran “Los valores en la toma de decisiones y su objetividad” (2003), “La toma de decisiones en situaciones de complejidad” (2003) y “Análisis de la Economía como Ciencia de Diseño: El enfoque de la bounded rationality en la toma de decisiones” (2007).

Observation and experimentation are central topics of philosophy and methodology of science. The empirical sciences have commonly been associated to observational and experimental processes, because they have been considered crucial for testing the contents of these. Thus, observation and experimentation have received attention from different angles, and they have been historically relevant in the advancement of science. Their philosophical-methodological analysis includes some key aspects those related to axiological, epistemological and methodological issues. New Methodological Perspectives on Observation and Experimentation in Science deals with a classic topic that is seen from new angles. Its nine chapters seek “non-traditional” aspects, trying to extend the boundaries of this philosophical-methodological theme. They are presented in five sections: 1) A Philosophical-Methodological Context; 2) Experience and Scientific Observations; 3) Empirical Support and Experiments in Science; 4) Changes in the Framework on Observation and Experimentation; and 5) Enlarging the Philosophical Scope: Law and Ecology. Wenceslao J. Gonzalez is Professor of Logic and Philosophy of Science (University of A Coruña). He is a Full Member of the International Academy for Philosophy of Sciences (AIPS), Visiting fellow at the Center for Philosophy of Science (University of Pittsburgh) and a Team Leader of the European Science Foundation program entitled “The Philosophy of Science in a European Perspective.” He has been named a Distinguished Researcher by the Main National University of San Marcos in Lima (Peru). He has been a visiting researcher at the Universities of St. Andrews, Münster and London (LSE). He has given lectures at the Universities of Pittsburgh, Stanford, Quebec and Helsinki. The conferences in which he has participated include those organized by the Universities of Uppsala, New South Wales, Bologna, Canterbury (NZ), and Beijing. He has edited 26 volumes on philosophy and methodology of science.

The emphasis on the realm of Science, Technology and Society or Science and Technology Studies may have the same degree of relevance that the “historical turn” had in the past. It is a “social turn” which affects philosophy of science as well as philosophy of technology. It includes a new vision of the aims, processes and results of scientific activities and technological doings, because the focus of attention is on several aspects of science and technology which used to be considered as secondary, or even irrelevant. This turn highlights science and technology as social undertakings rather than intellectual contents. According to this new vision, there are several important changes as to what should be studied the objects of research, how it should be studied the method and what the consequences for those studies are. The new focus of attention can be seen in many changes, and among them are several of special interest: a) from what science and technology are in themselves (mainly, epistemic contents) to how science and technology are made (largely, social constructions); b) from the language and structure of basic science to the characteristics of applied science and the applications of science; c) from technology as a feature through which human beings control their natural surroundings (a step beyond “technics” due to the contribution of science) to technology as a social practice and an instrument of power; and d) from the role of internal values necessary for “mature science” and “innovative technology” to the role of contextual or external values (cultural, political, economic ...) of science and technology. Wenceslao J. Gonzalez is professor of logic and philosophy of science at the University of A Coruña (Spain). He has been vicedean of the School of Humanities and president of the Committee of Doctoral Programs at the University. He has been a visting researcher at the Universities of St. Andrews, Münster and London (London School of Economics), as well as Visiting fellow at the Center for Philosophy of Science, University of Pittsburgh. He has given lectures at the Universities of Pittsburgh, Stanford, Quebec and Helsinki.

This monograph analyzes Nicholas Rescher’s system of pragmatic idealism. It also looks at his approach to prediction in science. Coverage highlights a prominent contribution to a central topic in the philosophy and methodology of science. The author offers a full characterization of Rescher’s system of philosophy. She presents readers with a comprehensive philosophico-methodological analysis of this important work. Her research takes into account different thematic realms: semantic, logical, epistemological, methodological, ontological, axiological, and ethical. The book features three, thematic-parts: I) General Coordinates, Semantic Features and Logical Components of Scientific Prediction; II) Predictive Knowledge and Predictive Processes in Rescher’s Methodological Pragmatism; and III) From Reality to Values: Ontological Features, Axiological Elements, and Ethical Aspects of Scientific Prediction. This insightful analysis offers a critical reconstruction of Rescher’s philosophy. The system he created is often characterized as pragmatic idealism that is open to some realist elements. He is a prominent representative of contemporary pragmatism who has made a great deal of contributions to the study of this topic. This area is crucial for science and it has been little considered in the philosophy of science.

Epistemology had to come to terms with “the social” on two different occasions. The first was represented by the dispute about the epistemological status of the “social” sciences, and in this case the already well established epistemology of the natural sciences seemed to have the right to dictate the conditions for a discipline to be a science. But the social sciences could successfully vindicate the legitimacy of their specific criteria for scientificity. More recently, the impact of social factors on the construction of our knowledge (including scientific knowledge) has reversed, in a certain sense, the old position and promoted social inquiry to the role of a criterion for evaluating the purport of cognitive (including scientific) statements. But this has undermined the traditional characteristics of objectivity and rigor that seem constitutive of science. Moreover, in order to establish the real extent to which social conditionings have an impact on scientific knowledge one must credit sociology with a sound ground of reliability, and this is not possible without a preliminary “epistemological” assessment. These are some of the topics discussed in this book, both theoretically and with reference to concrete cases.

Nowadays, philosophy and methodology of science appear as a combination of novelty and continuity. This blend is clear both in the general approaches to science (those thought of as any science) and in the specific perspectives on every science, either formal or empirical. There are new topics for philosophical reflection, such as key issues in philosophy of medicine and central problems raised by neuroscience. Thus, new contents have brought attention to aspects that previously went almost unnoticed. In addition, there are new angles for philosophical study, such as the repercussion of society on scientific activity (in aims, processes, and results). But the background of the main philosophical and methodological trends of the twentieth century is, in many ways, still in place.
