科学正面临着多方面的危机：质量危机、公共价值危机、政治合法性危机。在很大程度上，这些问题的根源在于人们普遍认为，不受约束的科学好奇心为解决科学和社会问题提供了最好的起点或出发点。在这篇文章中，我将展示这一信念如何有助于科学企业，其指数级增长的生产力越来越与满足高质量标准或社会需求脱钩。我将无拘无束的科学探索的理想与科学、创新和解决问题的真实的故事进行了对比，这些故事讲述了二战后“军工复合体”的制度安排。通过一系列当代和历史的例子更强的联系，我展示了如何更强的知识创造的背景下，解决问题的背景下，提供了路径沿着科学可以恢复其完整性和对社会的承诺之间的联系。
Science is facing a multi-faceted crisis: in terms of quality, of public value, of political legitimacy. To a signiicant degree, these problems ind their origin in the widely held belief that unfettered scientific curiosity provides the best starting point or departure for solving both scientific and social problems. In this article I show how this belief has contributed to a scientific enterprise whose exponentially growing productivity is increasingly decoupled from meeting the standards of high quality or the needs of society. I contrast the ideals of unfettered scientific inquiry with real stories of how science, innovation, and problem solving came together in the institutional arrangements of the “military-industrial complex” after World War II. Through an array of contemporary and historical examples stronger links, I show how stronger links between the context of knowledge creation, and the context of problem solving, provides the pathway along which science can recover both its integrity and its commitment to society.
