摘要: 本文依据英文版《波兰对科学学的贡献》(Polish Contributions to the Science of Science,1982)文集及主要代表作,阐述了科学学史上浓墨重彩的一笔。波兰学者首倡“科学的科学”,是波兰对科学学的开创性贡献。如果说,波兰人提出的科学学新学科概念是世界科学学史上开创阶段的序曲,那么,英国科学家贝尔纳的《科学的社会功能》(1939)就是科学学开创阶段的高潮和奠基性巨著。从世界科学学的历史进程看,这相当于继波兰人哥白尼提出日心说、波兰女性居里夫人发现放射性之后,由波兰人引发的科学学研究是对世界科学学发展的又一大贡献。

Abstract: The paper explored the pregnancy and development of the Science of Science in Poland based on the collection of Polish Contributions to the Science of Science, which remained a striking mark in the long history of the Science of Science. The Polish scholars proposed the disciplinary term “Science of Science” firstly in the world, and it is the pioneering contribution to the Science of Science. If the new subject concept of “Science of Science” as the prelude for start-up phase in the history of Science of Science, then the “The Social Function of Science” (written by British scientist Bernal, 1939) was considered to be the peak and fundamental work in the start-up phase of Science of Science. From the perspective of the development and history of Science of Science, this contribution by Pland could be great to the world again, which followed by Copernicus’s controversial concept of a heliocentric solar system and Madame Curie’s discovery of the radioactive element.
