Why the Humanities Matter for Science, and Why Science Matters for the Humanities? Intradisciplinary Perspectives

Proceedings: Abstracts of the 3rd World Conference on Arts, Humanities, Social Sciences and Education

Prof. Albrecht Classen

Abstract

This talk will pick up the baton of most intensive discussions in recent times both within and outside of academia regarding the value of the Humanities faced by the enormous growth of STEM (MINT). I want to argue that this dichotomy is a false one and needs to be remedied, but not simply from one side alone, but from both. No one would doubt the value of STEM, whereas the Humanities seem to be a weak field. However, in close consideration, science without humanities is a lost cause, and humanities without science might be pure speculation or imagination.and used for this target group (Roskenet al. 2021, Smith 2022, Potter, S., Peter Cudd, P., and de Witte, L. 2019).
