This book examines how political decisions relate to scientific knowledge and what factors determine the success of scientific research in influencing policy. The authors take a comparative and historical perspective and refer to well-known theoretical frameworks, but the focus of the book is on three case studies: the discourse of racism, Keynesianism, and climate change. These cases cover a number of countries and different time periods. In all three the authors see a close link between 'knowledge producers' and political decision makers, but show that the effectiveness of the policies varies dramatically. This book will be of interest to scientists, decision makers and scholars alike"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000455656 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000455656 650_0 $$aPolitical planning. 000455656 650_0 $$aPolitical science. 000455656 650_0 $$aResearch$$xPolitical aspects. 000455656 650_0 $$aScience$$xPolitical aspects. 000455656 650_0 $$aScience$$xSocial aspects. 000455656 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 000455656 7001_ $$aStehr, Nico. 000455656 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aGrundmann, Reiner.$$tPower of scientific knowledge.$$dNew York : Cambridge University Press, 2012$$z9781107022720$$z9781107606722$$w(DLC) 2012016903$$w(OCoLC)785872077 000455656 8520_ $$bacq 000455656 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000455656 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=989102$$zOnline Access 000455656 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:455656$$pGLOBAL_SET 000455656 980__ $$aEBOOK 000455656 980__ $$aBIB 000455656 982__ $$aEbook 000455656 983__ $$aOnline
