"Mobile Wall" represents the period between the latest issue available in JSTOR and the latest journal. The moving wall is usually expressed in terms of age. In rare cases, since the issuer selected the "zero" mobile wall, the current problem will be made public on JSTOR as soon as it is issued.

For example, if the current year is 2008 and the journal has a 5 year moving frame, you can get the 2002 article.

Revelation: Our argument is not that science is not a unique culture that we can not do successful scientific research in the context of our social culture. In fact, science is beyond the scope of Western culture just like Japan. The important thing is that the basic elements of science and culture must be integrated into existing culture to build an effective scientific community in the country. Perhaps in the long run the interaction between the two will change to some extent.

What is the difference between traditional knowledge and Western science? Traditional knowledge and culture are the background of TEK, Western culture is also the background of Western science. Western science has developed in an increasingly secular and materialized culture without the spirit of mutual obligation to nature. Therefore, Western science thinks that there is no spirit in nature. It is a reducingist - not the whole. It is linear rather than circular. It is a product, not technology. Interpretation is more important than meaning. In order to generalize the prediction of natural phenomena in a short time, in order to obtain technological innovation and development verification and counterfeiting, and massive control over the hypothesis, through reproducible local experiments, nature is It can be divided. Francis Bacon, a father of Western philosophy, noticed "understanding nature dominates nature" four centuries ago.

Science is not so, and it was not objective. Because of its nature, culture is a co-creation and sharing process. Science is a technique - in many ways, it is an ideological function that strives to maintain and maintain the mainstream ideology of the culture in which it emerges. In other words, the construction of science, medicine, and diseases is a greater value and belief than our effective application, the essence of matter, and human beings "accomplish". However, since science and medicine are premised on moral irreversibility and the ability to directly influence human life, it has a strong potential hazard which can be used to weaponize and carry out pollution there is. Science and medicine do not reveal objective reality in some way, but reveal more about our culture and its value. After all, they are just shots to create and describe the whole element - we have defined that essence
