  7. Problems Problems with the science machine Problems with the science machine: Understanding new and unknown phenomena Definitions Theory Results – from data or theory? Validity – correct, but true? Conclusions: The science machine cannot be the only solution to the problem of valid knowledge

  8. Problems The university according to the science machine: Teach and learn theory Teach and learn the use of science machines Research: build and repair science machines Problem: It is boring, it is inefficient, it is often in-valid. Cannot create new knowledge?
