20世纪20年代,唯物主义意识形态在英国激增。H G威尔斯推动了一个强烈的无神论计划,该计划以专家科学领导社会为基础。本文将科学人文主义与科学人文主义进行了对比。这篇文章表明,朱利安赫胥黎的这个项目是通过1930年之前短命的杂志现实主义者开创的,然后通过广播媒介更成功。尽管像J. D.伯纳尔被更好地记住,共产主义者和无神论者的广播时间受到严格限制。相反,在1930年至1934年期间,BBC的玛丽亚当斯(Mary Adams)利用赫胥黎为《现实主义者》(The Realist)收集的小圈子进行了一系列关于科学及其社会功能的辩论。因此,科学人文主义被广播到成千上万。因此,这篇文章建议我们更多地关注英国广播公司在探索威胁旧世界的技术的机会和谈判限制时可以广播的特定科学意识形态。
Materialist ideologies multiplied in Britain during the 1920s. H G Wells promoted a strongly atheist programme grounded in expert scientific leadership of society. To that vision, this article contrasts scientific humanism. The article suggests that this project of Julian Huxley was pioneered through the short-lived magazine The Realist before 1930 and then much more successfully through the medium of radio. Although such Marxists as J.D. Bernal have been better remembered, the airtime of communists and atheists was strictly limited. Instead many series of debates about science and its social function in the years 1930 to 1934 were produced by the BBC's Mary Adams drawing on Huxley's coterie assembled for The Realist. Thereby scientific humanism was broadcast to hundreds of thousands. The article therefore suggests we pay more attention to the particular ideology of science that the BBC could broadcast as it explored the opportunities and negotiated the constraints of a technology that was threatening the old world.
