Small Science, Little Fraud? Scale and Misconduct in Contemporary Science
Given that issues of scale and size are commonly used in characterizations of small science, this paper explores their possible relationship with the prevalence of scientific misconduct. The study is based on a detailed review of recent empirical work addressing, both directly and indirectly, different aspects of scale in relation to questionable scientific practices. First, we discuss some problems in conceptualising scientific misconduct. Secon…
Imaginación tecnológica e ideología de la innovación
El vínculo entre tecnología e imaginación es, como mínimo, doble. Por un lado, el diseño y la creación de artefactos técnicos siempre comienzan con actos deliberados de imaginación, más o menos radicales, en los que se conciben formas diferentes de hacer algo, nuevas prácticas o metas que hasta el momento eran impensables. Por el otro, las tecnologías disponibles en una sociedad modelan y condicionan en gran medida los límites de lo imaginable. L…
Semi-automatic generation of a corpus of Wikipedia articles on science and technology
Despite the huge amount of scientific and technological content available on the World Wide Web, most of it is closed behind paywalls, as with academic journals, or almost invisible, as with institutional repositories. Wikipedia can act as a chain-transfer agent, providing people with an accessible, organized structure containing both understandable content and links to original sources. In Wikipedia, categories are collaboratively created and th…
A critical analysis of information society conceptualizations from an STS point of view
Science and Technology Studies (STS) have developed over the last four decades very rich and deep analysis of the interaction between science, technology and society. This paper uses some STS theoretical and methodological insights and findings to identify persistent misconceptions in the specific literature on ICTs and society. Technological deterministic views, the taken-for-granted image of technological designs, the prospective character of m…
