Full Transcript

In this lecture, we will study about Fact, Value and Objectivity in Sociology. Positivists like Comte and Durkheim argued in favour of Value-Neutrality and Value-Fact Dichotomy in sociological research. Max Weber emphasised on value relevance. Michael Lynch argued that scientists suffer from Confirmation Bias. Hawthorne effect and Field limitations lead to practical limits to objectivity in research. Malinowski and Boas argued in favour of Cultural Relativism #factvalueandobjectivity #sociology #upsc
