Alba Mora: 04:02 Jan 19, 2007: What does "it" refer to? Paula Alvarez: 12:07 Jan 20, 2007: MÁS CONTEXTO - Some people, especially some scientists and philosophers of science, have of late been terrified on hearing the second Tower of Babel begin to crumble. Irritated by the realisation that nature could no longer unify nor reconcile, that new sciences are not dampening the fires of passion but fuelling them, they are turning against other philosophers, ‘postmodern’ thinkers, science students and other anthropologists of various hues. Even philosophers of science like me have been accused of being responsible for the destruction of the second Tower, as if we were strong enough to behave like Samson and bring down the pillars of established nature under our own heads!! No, we are not that strong; we don’t have this power, and we have no taste for heroic suicide. As for the Tower, never was never that stable anyway; if it has crumbled it is under the weight of its own ambition. By expanding everywhere to cover the whole of human experience it has lost its immunity, its unity, its privilege. It has become the common cause, and thus, entered fully the realm of politics as usual. Here, matters of fact have become matters of concern.
