Global scientific responsibility

Fragmento

This paper is motivated by a concern that, while science has the potential to make substantial contributions to addressing the major challenges faced by humanity, it is currently impeded from doing so by a range of factors and dynamics operating internationally. Through investigation of the ways in which science and the scientific community interact with, influence and are influenced by international processes, realistic recommendations for improvements can be made. The starting point for this research has been the following quote from the Commission on Science and Technology for Development’s (1997) report Assault on Poverty: Basic Human Needs, Science and Technology.
