Theoretical applications influencing the formation of David Bloor's "strong program"

Strong Program Theory, a theory in the field of the sociology of knowledge, by the English sociologist David Bloor, one of the leading leaders of the Edinburgh School, in collaboration with the sociologist of science Barry Barnes and the science historian Steven Shipin in the 1970s, based on four The principle of causality, The principle of impartiality, The principle of symmetry and The principle of reflexivity was established. Merton, by not accepting society as a causal factor in the construction of scientific knowledge and having a functionalist view, came up with the idea that no hypothesis in physics could be tested in isolation. Wittgenstein rejected the theory of private languages, and Bartlett, with his two laws of complexity and conventionalization, was one of the theoretical foundations of a Strong Program theory. David Bloor' Strong Program theory with a naturalistic approach, Marxist tendencies, anti-theological and anti-self-centered and anti-empiricist position in knowledge, has determined its epistemological dimensions. The current research is among the basic theoretical researches. The current research is among the basic theoretical researches. The main questions are that the theory of the Strong Program is influenced by what theories or in response to the opinions of which thinkers it was formed, and also what are the dimensions or epistemic indicators of this theory that express the intellectual backgrounds and Bloor’s theoretical approaches.
