The present volume is a product of an international research
program 'Foundations of Science and Ethics', launched in 1976 by
the Inter University Centre of Post-Graduate Studies, Dubrovnik,
Yugoslavia, with the financial support of the V olkswagen
Foundation. According to the outline ofthe program, formulated in
1976 by a committee consisting of Professors Dagfinn F llesdal,
Rudolf Haller (coordinator), Lorenz Kruger, Karel Lambert, Keith
Lehrer, Kuno Lorenz, Gunther Patzig, Ivan Supek and Paul
Weingartner, its general purpose was to investigate the interplay
of various internal and external factors in the development of
science. Generous financial support from the Volkswagen Foundation
made it possible to plan four annual conferences, the first of
which was held in Dubrovnik on March 6-12, 1978. This volume
contains the majority of the papers presented in the first
Dubrovnik conference; the main theme of this conference was
'Rationality in Science and Ethics' (Some of the papers appear here
in a thoroughly revised form. ) Further results of the research
program will be discussed in three other conferences, to be held in
Dubrovnik in 1979-1981; the papers presented in these conferences
will be published separately. Professor Rudolf Haller of the
University of Graz assumed the burden of the practical planning and
organization of the first conference (as well as that of the other
three conferences). I wish to thank Professor Haller on behalf of
all participants for carrying out this demanding and time-consuming
task."
