Cooperation and Competition in the Sciences

The Projects of Phase 2

13.11.2020

With the start of the second funding period, our DFG-Research Group will continue to investigate the complex relationship between competition and cooperation in the sciences of the 1970s to the 1990s from a historical perspective.

The seven new subprojects deal with questions of cooperation, competition and economization in the sciences, for example in the areas of the life sciences, research funding, and the humanities.
