Abstract
Between the 1880s and the 1920s, the German system of scientific research, traditionally dominated by the universities, underwent rapid institutional change and functional differentiation. This paper analyses this development as a constitutive factor in Germany’s transition from a predominantly industrial to a primarily ‘knowledge-based’ society. This perspective broadens and deepens our understanding of the current debate concerning the social production of knowledge.
