Abstract
Knowledge sociology which focuses on the relationship between knowledge and social structure, attends to that how the ideas are organized, because the knowledge making ideas and societies is a tool which provides to making different both ideas and societies from each other. In this situation knowledge sociology ponders that how the knowledge is produced and given. Thus, in this study, in consideration of Feyrabend’s (who is an anarchist of knowledge) “THREE DIALOGUES ON KNOWLEDGE” “sociology of knowledge” will be explained and Feyrabend’s opinions on knowledge will be analyzed as part of Feyerabend’s sense of knowledge. Also, in addition to study as part of Feyrabend’s “SCIENCE IN A FREE SOCIETY”, Feyerabend’s “sense of science” will be examined. Feyerabend’s opinons that; infact the science has not standards, the principles change case to case, standards and principles in a science of field do not accord to all science of field will try to be examined. Briefly, Feyerabend’s criticisms that a single argument of science and standards will be discussed. Feyerabend takes an interest in the role of rationalism in science, practices’s interaction with each others, the relationship between reason and existence and the science’s different paradigms. Thus, Feyerabend’s pluralism and his views on the relationship among the all sciences will also be mentioned.
