The main purpose of this volume is to  try to understand the reasons for this \u003cem\u003edenationalization\u003c\/em\u003e of  science, its historical contexts and its social forms. The  Introduction to the volume sets out the socio-political, intellectual,  and economic contexts for the nationalization and denationalization of  the sciences, processes that have extended over four centuries. The  articles examine the specific conditions that have given rise to the  growth of transnational science in the 20th century. Among these are:  the need for cognitive and technical standardization of scientific  knowledge-products, pressure toward cost-sharing of large  installations such as CERN, the voluntary and involuntary migration of  scientists, and the global market for R\u0026amp;D products that has emerged at  the end of the century. \u003cbr\u003e  The volume raises many new questions for research by historians and  sociologists of science and poses problems that are of concern both to  scientists and science policy-makers. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1992-12-31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780792318552\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-017-1221-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235.0cm x155.0cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 303.0\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer Netherlands","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45578439426188,"sku":"9780792318552","price":197.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780792318552.jpg?v=1767148124","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9780792318552","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
