- W1522276054 abstract "Joseph Needham (1900–95) was not only an excellent biochemist, but also an eminent historian. He became famous for his impressive achievement embodied in the massive series Science and Civilisation in China, published in many volumes since 1954. Although the exploration of the history of traditional Chinese science, technology, and medicine had begun already before him, he is certainly the scholar who contributed most to the academic institutionalization of these studies, both in East and West. One of his basic convictions was that modern science and technology, as they arose in the West, owed much to ideas and inventions originating in East Asia or China. He conceived of modern science as an outcome of a universalistic process, to which various cultures had made their contributions. In his opinion, the reason that modern science did not arise in China was because it was hindered by external factors, especially the structure of Chinese feudal-bureaucratic society. Needham's approaches provide important elements for a comparative historical and differential sociology of civilizational complexes and intercivilizational encounters. He not only ascribed social values to the notion of universality of modern science, but also perceived it as a sharp tool of critique directed against Eurocentric internalism." @default.
