Resumo: |
The interaction between the professional dissemination of science and technology (TSD) and the scientist is one of the key aspects of the process involved in the public communication of science. The importance of this theme stimulated the development of this dissertation, which focuses on the study of the relationship between these two professional groups, considering the different configurations of both contexts. The intention here is to contribute to a better understanding of the subject, thus minimizing the friction between such characters, as repeatedly pointed out in the literature, and thus allowing the TSD enjoy a solid and satisfactory development. Initially, to clarify the boundaries of the activities performed by the actors involved, one addresses here the conceptualization of terms associated with the TSD and with scientific research. The paper goes deeper into the main topic when it analyzes theoretical discussions which point to some obstacles to the development of science dissemination. In summary, arguments about barriers to TSD may be divided into two main types: a) a sizable portion of scientists believes disclosure as practical without importance for the S & T system, because the social function of this area is still not adequately appreciated, whether political, institutional or even academically; b) it is a common practice among scientists to consider that professionals involved in TSD, especially journalists, do not have sufficient scientific culture, and therefore need to better understand the scientific contents with which they work to act more independently, creatively and critically. The fieldwork of this thesis - ten interviews carried out with recognized professional representatives of academia and scientific publishing - generated a set of statements that allow historical comparisons of the relationship in question, as well as contribute to the understanding of factors that inhibit or contribute to a more rewarding dialogue among these interactors . The interview dynamics considered core topics pointed out by the literature on the subject, but also allowed for the inclusion of other aspects considered as relevant by the interlocutors. Data analysis presented here was divided in the following items: new perspectives for TSD; influences of new technologies of information and communication on TSD; relationship between the TSD and education; the need to meet the social demand for information in S&T; difficulties for the development of a national TSD. The set of interviews undertaken indicates that contradictory ideas prevail in the field. TSD is characterized by the interviewed as growing in importance associated with the national development. However, the field is also characterized by them as still suffering from traditional and backward ideas, as well as from lack of investment, which undermines the intercession between academia and other social sectors. Data presented suggest, therefore, a name for this paradox (closing and opening of scientific knowledge) as the twilight of the scientific culture, a period of emerging accessibility to scientific knowledge, indicating that science is gradually closer to Brazilian citizens |
