Freiheit der Wissenschaft

Science and scientific development are increasingly subject to differentiations and specializations that are ever harder to communicate to the general public. This is reflected in doubts about the freedom of science and, conversely, in efforts to actualize it as an important resource of society. Freedom of science has thus become the focal point of various problematic concerns and is here examined from the perspective of physics, medicine, law, philosophy of science and ethics.
