The rise of sci-washing

Abstract

As a researcher from a developing country, I am deeply concerned about the dangerous trend that governments abuse their powers in deciding the science budget and personnel to manipulate the science policies for their political goals. Unfortunately, in many circumstances, those governments have attacked sciences in the name of science, saying that they believe in and support science. We will need a term to call it, and I suggest “sci- washing.” This problem represents an enormous cost to the economy and is detrimental to the sciences.
