摘要
Although objectivity is generally considered a result of Western science and civilization, Michael Polanyi and John Macmurray offer some insights into how the received view of objectivity as impersonal and unemotional entails a deep misunderstanding of what knowledge truly is. My contention is that ancestral indigenous thinking (small-band hunter gatherers) represents truer knowledge and rationality and aligns more with Polanyi and Macmurray. I integrate these ideas with modern cognitive and neuroscience and briefly apply these expanded notions to the realm of virtue.
