Annotationen:Knowing in Self-Regulating Organisms (A Constructivist Approach)/Pyr8jth46d	If knowledge can be considered the result of the adaptive effort of cognitive organisms in their struggle to maintain their equilibrium in the face of perturbations, it does not seem reasonable for them to use this knowledge to compete with one another. On the contrary, it seems that in order to maintain not only their own equilibrium but also that of the planet on which they find themselves living they would have to foster in every conceivable way every kind of mutual collaboration.

Annotationen:Knowing in Self-Regulating Organisms (A Constructivist Approach)/Rgsagcgxj3	The salient point in all this is that, since this “reality” manifests itself only in failures of our acting and/or thinking, we have no way of describing it except in terms of actions and thoughts that turned out to be unsuccessful.

Annotationen:Knowing in Self-Regulating Organisms (A Constructivist Approach)/S1dg1cdpih	Thus, we need Others.	Sarah Oberbichler	24 July 2019 14:35:18	TextAnnotation Schlussfolgerung3
Annotationen:Knowing in Self-Regulating Organisms (A Constructivist Approach)/Uonkg7x2bd	Scientific knowledge, then, does not and could not yield a picture of the “real” world; it provides more or less reliable ways of dealing with experience. Hence it may be viable, but it can make no claim to “Truth”, if “Truth” is to be understood as a correspondence to the ontologically real world. On the other hand, this way of looking at knowledge, be it scientific or other, makes it immune against the sceptics’ perennial argument. Since this constructivist notion of knowledge does not claim to provide a picture of something beyond experience, the fact that one cannot compare it with such a something, does not detract from this kind of knowledge - it is either viable or it is not. Indeed, as a constructivist, I tend to go one step further: Since we have access only to experience and cannot get outside the experiential field, there is no way one could show that one’s experiences are the effects of causes that lie outside the experiential world.

Annotationen:Knowing in Self-Regulating Organisms (A Constructivist Approach)/Yd8rs5pexe	Constructivism, thus, does not deny the “existence” of Others, it merely holds that insofar as we know these Others, they are models that we ourselves construct.
