Abstract

The main idea of the project discussed in the article is that the production of scientific knowledge is not only an experimental process. Convention among scientists is played a special role in the acceptance of theory. To demon-strate this idea, H. Collins and co-authors of the relativistic empirical programme in the sociology of science publish a special issue “Knowledge and Controversy: Studies of Modern Natural Science”. The results obtained by the authors are discussed in this article.
