Policy for science, people for science
Between Politics and Science
Conference Theme Lecture
The convergences of science, technology, and soci ety (STS) may be better specified as the interaction of policy, research, and democracy. From the perspective of a long-time participant in the process of federal policy making, the author puts STS as a research and education enterprise into its broader cultural context. He addresses how, in the information age, STS promotes participation in a democracy through human resource development, paths to…
Data on the Federal Research System in the United States
In response to a request by the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology, U.S. House of Representatives, the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) undertook a wide-ranging study of the federally funded research system and its challenges in the 1990s. Central to the OTA report, Federally Funded Research: Decisions for a Decade, is the role of data for decision making as an issue in U.S. research policy. This article summarizes the availability …
Peerless Science
Commentary
The National Science Foundation is part-some would say the centerpiece-of America's vastly successful research system. Hailed as the source of financial support for mostly basic, mostly academic, research creativity, NSF is a symbol of the U.S. federal investment in science. The symbolism counts. For part of NSF's mystique, and the source of much of its moral power, is the system by which it allocates scarce resources to good ideas-peer review. N…
Allocating Credit and Blame in Science
Research Evaluation and the Generation of Big Science Policy
The quantitative evaluation of science, now in its second generation, has become a policy-oriented specialty. Second-generation bibliometrics, as represented by several new approaches, has transformed the analysis of publication and citation data into a sophisticated tool for comprehending the complexity of the scientific enterprise and for addressing practical issues on the national and world science policy agenda. By developing quantitative mea…
The political economy of sociology
War Painters and Western Science
This essay focuses on one epoch in one culture, the 'war painter' system in Nazi Germany, and considers its social trappings (professional, political) as characteristics shared by another epoch and culture, evaluation systems in contemporary Western science. The parallels are instructive not only for a self-critical sociology of knowledge such as that envisioned by Karl Mannheim and Alvin Gouldner, but moreover as an anthropological test of cultu…
A Declaration of Interests
In summertime, the living may be easy, but the reading is not. I stretched the task of consuming Law and Lodge's Science for Social Scientists from pre-All Star Baseball Game to well beyond the date the Atlanta Braves were mathematically eliminated from the pennant race. Thus, I can say with conviction that the book received the benefit of my leisure plus the wrath of another summer squandered on the mediocre home team. The Braves drove me to dis…
Experience with NIH Peer Review
In the United States, peer review is central to the process by which many government agencies select research proposals for funding.' Although several different agency versions of peer review are practiced,2 they share one characteristic: Scientists judge both the potential value of proposed research projects and the ability of proposers to perform the studies. The premise is self-fulfilling. If scientists identified as peer specialists are best …
Peer Review and Public Policy
Misconduct in research
Open Science and Closed Science
In 1942, when Robert Merton published his classic essay on the norms of science, the shadow of war extended across the world. The threat of fascismand its concomitant commitment to state ideology-appeared the antithesis of free and open scientific inquiry. Science, like nature, could not be shackled to a political system; instead, science served a higher rationality to which properly socialized scientists paid homage by contributing to the extens…

State of the Field The Conceptualization of Scientific Specialties
This paper analyzes the phenomenon of research specialization in science. The format consists of two sections. The first features a state-of-the-art review of evidence from so-called specialty case studies on definition, measurement strategies, and representations of the relations in which small groups of researchers cohere. In the second section, a theoretical perspective on the development of specialties is formulated. This perspective incorpor…

Peer Review at the NSF
The controversy over peer review is viewed as a dialectic. The arguments espoused by advocates and critics of the system wherein research proposals are evaluated by advisors to funding agencies are reviewed, particularly the findings of two recent studies of peer review at the National Science Foundation These findings seem to establish merit as the primary factor m the recommendations of peer reviewers to fund proposals The findings also beg sev…

The Occupational Structure of Science
The occupational structure of science is conceptualized as consisting of four sectors within which the career patterns of two cohorts of sociologists are examined. Using an origin criterion, receipt of the Ph.D. from an American university, to define the cohorts, we analyze the effects of various factors on sectoral immobility—which has been the norm for three decades—and mobility. In general, structural factors supersede individual differences i…
