ABSTRACT

positivism

_{knowledge philosophy (1848/1865)} arises

from the

secularism

point

of

view

(1851) that promote-from

industiial

revolution (1750

to

1850). Technological changes that

p.o.ot.

industrial revolution change

the whole

of civil

society and proposed intellectual

paradigm such as Capitalism, Socialism and Romanticism. The revolution also challenged the

irreotolicat basis of

ioyal

authority and endorse doctrine challenged the

righ!

of

kings. The

king was

to

govern on behalf

of

the people and not under the orders

of

God as

well

as the

teni

of

Secularism. This cultural movement

of

intellectuals sought to mobilize the power

of

reason

in

order

to

reform society and advance knowledge, named an Age

of

Enlightenment.

Enlightenment was a desire for human affairs to be guided by rationality rather than by faith.

The"age

of

enlightenment proposed positivism knowledge philosophy as

well

as rationality

g"iauri"".

Social-science is commonly used as an umbrella term to refer to a plurality of fields

outside

of

the

natural

sciences. These

include

anthropology, archaeology, criminology,

economics, education, linguistics,

political

science

and

international relations, sociology,

geography,

history,

law,

-and

pty"hology.

Social

sciences

came

forth from the

moral

irrir"oripriv of the iime and were-influenced by the Age of Enlightenment. Social science was

innr.n".d

by

positivism focusing on knowledge based on actual positive sense experience

and avoidingtlie negative metaphysical speculation was avoided.

However nowadays scientists -promotes

religion

as

a

sources

of

knowledge and sciences

postulates.

A

large degree

of

academic discussions such as international conferences and

journals

_publishe-d are- endorsed

by

religion

motivation.

Ior

example,

Islamist

scientist

propo.eOLody of knowledge based on Quran and Jews tried to explore relationship

between-Torah

with

science.

Accoidingly

scientists seem un-satisfied

on positivism

as

a

basic

of

knowledge

and

science development

and return

to

religious

in

developing science and

technology.
