摘要

The science reform movement involves several different sorts of normative conflicts involving scientific questions, research methods, and the political implications of scientific findings. After a brief review of some of the sources for scientific conflict, we consider internal and external incentives for bad scholarship and conclude with a recommendation of a fuller acceptance of normative conflicts regarding published science. We recommend a broader acceptance of normative conflict in science without expecting or even hoping that such conflict will go away.
