In many of his writings (he published over 80 books and several hundred articles) he reiterates that what we call knowledge cannot be a representation of an observer-independent reality. And every now and then, as in the passage I quoted, he says that the human activity of knowing is the highest form of adaptation. But he rarely put the two statements together – and this may have made it easier for both his followers and his critics to ignore the revolutionary conceptual change his theory was demanding.v \nIf you consider that in the context of the Darwinian theory of evolution, “to be adapted” means to survive by avoiding constraints, it becomes clear that, for Piaget, “to know” does not involve acquiring a picture of the world around us. Instead, it concerns the discovery of paths of action and of thought that are open to us, paths that are viable in the face of experience.","highlights":Ӷ^"jQuery321057212323343435682":^°°,^"jQuery321057212323343435682":^°°Ӻ,"text":"","category":"Argumentation2","data_creacio":1575648942471° 2019-12-06T17:16:03Z 2458824.2194792 2019-12-06T16:16:09Z 2458824.1778819 Text:Anticipation in the Constructivist Theory of Cognition/M482bq7128
