The scientific research process

.

Chapter 2 in Structuring Public–Private Research Partnerships for Success, 2016, pp 17-26 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: We evaluate two competing paradigms for modeling the scientific research process: the linear decomposition paradigm and the non-linear, chaotic, feedback research paradigm. The assessment of research paradigms is not simply an academic exercise, as each paradigm has important implications for universities contemplating public–private research partnerships. The two alternative paradigms have direct implications for whether public or private goods emerge from the research and development process.
