以维基百科为代表的网络合作创造了一种全新的知识生产方式,并从认识论上提出了新的问题和挑战,文章关注了这些问题并对集体合作的认识论研究展开深入的分析和思考。文章指出维基百科与科学的四种认识文化差异,认为维基百科知识可以被视为一种认识论研究中的集体陈词,这种集体陈词具有较强的可辩护性,维基百科并不能取代专家作用,但是却能够生成一种认识平均主义模型从而打破知识特权实现知识权利的转移和流动。
As a representative of Network cooperation,Wikipedia has created a new mode of knowledge production, and introduced new problems and challenge in epistemology. This paper focuses on these problems and analyzes deeply this epistemology of mass collaboration. The paper points out four differences in epistemic culture between Wikipedia and science, thinks that these knowledge can be seen as group testimony of epistemology which is greatly justifiable. We think that Wikipedia cannot replace the expert role but can generate a model of epistemic egalitarian- ism and break the knowledge privilege so as to realize the transfer and flow of knowledge right.
