Abstract

Daniel Bell’in Sanayi Sonrası Toplumun Gelişi adlı eseri, 21. Yüzyıl küresel toplumlarının sosyo-ekonomik tablosunu ortaya koymak açısından önemli veriler sunmaktadır. Temelde “bilgi” olgusu ve süreçleri özelinde şekillenen sanayi sonrası toplum, önceki toplumsal formasyonlardan farklı olarak bireyi ve onun toplum içindeki konumunu daha aktif bir pozisyona taşır. Bu aktif olma hali, teknolojide, bilimde ve entelektüel alanda yeni türden toplumsal ilişkileri de beraberinde getirir. Mevcut çalışma, sanayi sonrası toplum özelinde Türkiye’de son 10-15 yıllık süre içerisinde bilimde, teknolojide ve entelektüel alanda ortaya çıkan gelişmeleri ve yeni türden ilişkileri analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu sebeple, çalışma, ilgili kavramın teorik yansımalarına ışık tuttuktan sonra, sa-nayi sonrası toplumun Türkiye’de TÜBİTAK, üniversiteler, düşünce enstitüleri, teknoloji yatırımları vb. alanlardaki uygulamalarını ele alacaktır. Çalışmanın son bölümündeyse sanayi sonrası toplum kavramının Türkiye toplumuna uygulanabilirliğine dair bazı tartışalara ve eleştirel okumalara yer verilecektir.

Introduction to Development of Academic and Scientific Knowledge in Turkey in Specific to Post-Industrial Society

Abstract

Daniel Bell’s study, The Coming of Post-Industrial Society: A Venture in Social Forecasting, keeps

many important aspects in terms of illustrating the major socio-economic parameters of 21st Century’s

global societies. Post industrial society, which is basically shaped on the concept of

“knowledge” and processes regarding knowledge, brings individual and his status in society to a

more active position unlike previous social formations’ attempts on individual. This activation brings

original social relationships in technology, science, and intellectual areas. Current study proposes to

analyse the 10-15 year-period developments and new type of relationships in science, technology, and

intellectual area in Turkey in specific to post industrial society. Within this purpose in mind, after

highlighting the conceptual background, the application areas of post industrial society in Turkey

such as TUBİTAK (official academic council), universities, thinking institutes, technology investments,

etc. will be explored. At the last part of the study, on the other hand, some of the discussions

and critical readings on the applicability of the concept of post industrial society to Turkish society

will be issued
