What is Integrated Knowledge?

Analytical judgment & Synthetical judgment (Immanuel Kant, 1724 - 1804)
• Analytical judgment;• Definition: The predicate B
belongs to the Subject A. • Example: ‘Water consists of
2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen.’ • Process:
• Synthetical judgment;• Definition: The predicate B lies c
ompletely outside the Subject A.• Example: When the snow in Cana
da melts, spring is coming.’ • Process:

Good example 1 of synthetical, therefore, integrative knowledge
• Genesis Chapter 2 Verse 24:
“ A man will leave his father and mother,
and be united to his wife.”

Good example 2 of synthetical, therefore, integrative knowledge
• Nuclear fusion:
The joining of two light nucleus form
a heavier nucleus and produce great energy.

Sustainable Society Requires a New Mode of Knowledge.

Difference between the knowledge of classical society and the knowledge of sustainable society*
Classical Society Sustainable Society
Economy
Knowledge
• Public interest • Income related to need• Egalitarian• Collective provision
• Market focus • Rewards for achievement• Differentials• Individual self-help
• Nature as ample reserves • Confidence in science and technology• Rationality of means• Logical Positivism for the freedom of human mind
• Nature as nature • Limits to science and technology• Rationality of ends• New Mode of Knowledge - Integration of facts/value and thought/feeling for the sustainability
*Adapted from ‘S. Cotgrove and A. Duff, 1980 (Environmentalism, Values and Social Change, British Journal of Sociology 32, No.1: p.341’)

We Need A New Mode of Knowledge.
• Just think about ‘global warming, deforestation, freshwater, desertification, genetically modified foods,’ and that how many sciences and stakeholders are interconnected there.
• Nevertheless, many scientists have a tendency not only to view the context of sustainability from their narrow focus, but also to take the boundaries between the scientific, the social, and the technological worlds. (A. Irwin, 2001, sociology and the environment)

Human history has developed to realize the one value:
the freedom of human mind.
The sustainable society requires not only the freedom of human mind,
but also that of the nature.

Conclusion:
1. EIA focuses mainly on the contextual level of knowledge.
2. EIA needs to evolve into more interwoven level of knowledge-infraincluding technology and policy,
3. Where eco-governance issues should be founded.
