초록

소재에 관한 지식을 주제에 이전 투사함으로써 주제에 관하여 새로운 통찰과 정보를 생산하는 비유와 유추는 일상의 삶에서는 물론 과학적 탐구에서도 유용하고 유망하게 사용되는 사유방법이다. 과학에서 비유는 표현적 기능, 발견적 기능, 인지적 기능을 수행한다. 유추는 소재와 주제의 유사성을 근거로 소재의 특징들 사이의 인과적 연관이 주제에서도 작동할 것으로 추론하게 함으로써 과학적 상상력의 작용을 매개한다. 유추에 기초한 모델은 새로운 가설적 실체들과 기제들을 형상적으로 제시함으로써 이론화의 모태가 된다. 이것들은 사회연구에서도 불가결한 인지적 역할을 수행하므로, 사회연구 수행을 위해서는 이것들을 적절하고 정확하게 사용할 수 있어야 한다.

Abstract

Metaphor and analogy which use the known to express and to examine the unknown generate new insight and information about the subject by transfer and projection of the knowledge about the source. They are useful and promising way of thinking used in everyday life and scientific inquiry. They hint at potential similarities and analogies between the source and subject, thereby suggesting that scientists advance the entities, mechanisms and structures governing the behavior of the source as putative analogues for the unknown entities, mechanisms, and structures underlying the behavior of the subject. Thereby they facilitate scientists' attempts to explain their poorly understood subject matter. And they play a expressive, heuristic and cognitive functions in social studies too. So social scientists should use metaphor, analogy and model adequately and exactly to produce social scientific knowledge.
