Abstract: Abstract The intervention outlines, through a critical and punctual analysis, a perspective on how the leadership of contemporary Romanian society relates to scientific research in general, and to basic scientific research in particular. The Romanian Academy, the epicenter of basic scientific research in our country, reserves the right, the authors claim, to produce its own assessments in the spirit of society’s requirements, in keeping with its commitment to having served the nation for over 100 years. Considering the status of the Romanian Academy, the current relevance of “the highest national forum of scientific and cultural consecration” is all the greater since, at present, there is an obvious tendency to generalize the “commensuration” of research results by industrial/economic means/methods, a way that is totally and utterly inappropriate for basic scientific research.
