Cognitive Interests
Jürgen Habermas' concept of cognitive interests is central to his epistemological framework in Knowledge and Human Interests (1968). He argues that knowledge is not purely objective or value-neutral but is shaped by underlying human interests. He identifies three primary types of cognitive interests, each tied to different forms of knowledge production: Technical Interest, Practical Interest, and Emancipatory Interest
