The Objectives
The registered
memorandum of Centre for Studies on Science states the objectives as
follows:
To promote, undertake and sponsor the study of science in community
perspective with the aim of developing a cotemporary science which is
conjunial to a healthy and harmonious growth of man, its intellect and
Nature.
Here such a growth of science is being envisaged in which man's philosophical
and intellectual health is in harmony with the growth and development
in the domain of nature. This harmonious growth is possible only when
S&T activity of the community involved is based on the philosophy
and assumptions which mould its outlook and shape its relation with
nature. The traditional societies and the communities upholding the
traditional outlook are the true representatives of the term community
being referred to here. Obviously it also refers to religions based
societies.
