文摘

We focus on the social organization of research as a way to analyze scientific change. We propose a framework to analyze research collaborations and resulting knowledge. Repertoires help explain the functioning of research groups and the nature of outputs. They involve strategies to align components so as to produce intended performance. This gives an alternative to Kuhnian paradigms for understanding scientific change.
