Another possibility already exists in the cultivation of connections between social sciences
and the public. Half a century ago, sociologist Robert K. Merton observed: “Science, like any
other activity involving social collaboration, is subject to shifting fortunes.” For the physical
scientist, this meant coming to terms with not only the shifting public sentiments about science
but also the social consequences of scientific work. Merton called the normative stability of
scientific activity as the “belief of science” He described values and norms of three kinds:
universalism, disinterestedness, and organized suspicion.
Assessing such a matter as “the end of welfare as we know it” or globalization or human
rights always pushes the hot-buttons of public debate to points where some normative account
of the role of social sciences may help in defining that role in more constructive ways. By
universalism, Merton meant to point out that whatever one claims to be true must be subjected
to pre-established impersonal criteria: “The acceptance or rejection of claims entering the lists
of science is not to depend on the personal or social attributes of their protagonist; his race,
nationality, religion, class, and personal qualities are as such irrelevant. Objectivity excludes
particularism.” The norm of social-scientific universalism rejects the claim that the validity of
what is stated is determined beforehand by who makes the statement, or where such statements
are made, or how research is funded.
