SSK实验室研究近年来的扩展表现为诺尔·塞提娜的认知文化论。以诺尔为代表的知识社会学家们主张,知识社会中科学实验室将自然秩序与社会秩序连接起来,使得新的认知文化涌现出来。认知文化创造和确保知识,确保在世界上首要的知识体制仍然是科学;并世俗地扩展到实验室之外,融入到当今的知识社会,成为知识社会的一个结构性特征。 The expansion of SSK laboratory research in recent years is Norr-Sedina’s theory of cognitive culture. Knowledge sociologists such as Noor advocate that science laboratories in the knowledge society connect the natural order with the social order and make the new cognitive culture emerge. Cognitive culture creates and assures knowledge, ensures that the primary intellectual system in the world remains science, and extends secularly beyond the laboratory into the current knowledge society as a structural feature of the knowledge society.
