Description

Explore the shifting landscape of scientific research and institutional oversight with The Changing Governance of the Sciences: The Advent of Research Evaluation Systems. This volume, part of the Sociology of the Sciences Yearbook series, examines the growing impact of research evaluation schemes on the relationships between the state, universities, and the scientific community. Born from a discussion between Lars Engwall and Richard Whitley at the 2003 European Group for Organization Studies Colloquium, this work addresses a critical need for systematic and comparative analysis regarding how research is measured and managed. With support from the Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation, this book provides a deep look into the proliferation of evaluation systems, particularly within Europe. This academic text serves as a vital resource for those studying the sociology of science and the evolving structures of higher education. It offers a detailed perspective on how changing governance models affect the way scientific research is conducted and funded in a modern global context.
