- W2492017683 abstract "A re-interpretation of Francis Bacon’s understanding of policy highlights the relationships he drew between the study of natural bodies and the formation, expansion and preservation of political bodies. Bacon’s term ‘policy’ has often been understood unproblematically as law, government or civil science. However, it should be understood in relation to the far more suspect – from both a moral and an epistemological point of view – notion of reason of state. Policy produced and managed political change. Policy offered contingent, probabilistic tools for advancing political power, but ones that were insufficiently supported by the certainty of knowledge required, in Bacon’s view, to serve as the basis for a successfully enduring polity. He hoped to design stable, perfectly mixed political bodies through grounding policy within an understanding of natural forms. However, he failed to arrive at a complete metaphysical understanding of forms, and thus did not succeed in constructing a certain, civil science. If he could not stabilize policy through natural knowledge, he could at least bring change to natural knowledge through policy. Bacon thus drew on tools for advancing actual empire in order to advance the bounds of epistemic empire. Deploying the political charlatan’s techniques for manipulating human hope, desire and our tendency to delusion, he proposed a wish-list of the most desired discoveries which might tempt humankind to extend the boundaries of epistemic empire." @default.
