  • Descrição: As science has become a major source of power its relations to the state have been totally transformed. Advanced by individuals, 17th and 18th cent science remained largely a purely intellectual effort to understand the physical universe holding technical applications secondary. 19th cent science began to show links with technology as research began to depend upon instrumentation, and with industry, as support was sought for enlarging research operations. Simultaneously, the French Revolution and the Napoleonic system began to attract scientists into the orbit of national interests and concerns. In the 20th cent, the vast scale and great costliness of research has led science to seek out the state to take responsibility for its organization and equipment. Confronted by complex and fateful problems and concerned only with the practical value of knowledge, the state has come to regard science as a natural resource which it legitimately guards and rightfully exploits. Three lines of action can aid in the amelioration of this condition: (1) The scientific community must create a culture which will renew the belief in the intellectual and moral value of pure knowledge which present practice tends to derogate. (2) In its relation to the state, the community of science must incorporate and communicate the spirit of liberty. (3) The community of science must go beyond the point of view of the national community, without denying it legitimacy at its own level. S. L. Messinger.
