Abstract

AbstractThis article refers to the heart of science—research and the necessary freedom of research, which only arises with its institutionalization. Science deals with research problems in disciplinary and interdisciplinary research situations. An interdisciplinary research situation exists only when both the formulation of the problem and the methods used to address it require the participation of several disciplines. New scientific institutions, if nothing else, ensure interdisciplinary research. Since the times of Galileo Galilei, science has developed new, powerful research possibilities with the experimental method. The experimental method produces active changes that can also be accompanied by unintended consequences. Science must find a way to deal with this ambivalence without endangering its own freedom.
