The ideal is promoted by many organizations of scientists, and is the subject of article 15 3 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights . One classic defence of the idea is in Michael Polanyi s book, Personal Knowledge 1958 . Polanyi criticized the common view that the scientific method is purely objective and generates objective knowledge. Polanyi cast this view as a misunderstanding of the scientific method and of the nature of scientific inquiry, generally. He argued that scientists do and must follow personal passions in appraising facts and in determining which scientific questions to investigate. He concluded that a structure of liberty is essential for the advancement of science that the freedom to pursue science for its own sake is a prerequisite for the production of knowledge through peer review and the scientific method . ref cite book author Michael Polanyi title Personal Knowledge date 1958 isbn 0773491503 ref Polanyi subsequently co founded the Society for Freedom in Science . ref cite journal doi 10.1007 BF01102181 ... 1940&ndash 1946 journal Minerva disambiguation Minerva volume 16 issue 1 pages 42&ndash 72 ... and associations AAAS Award for Scientific Freedom and Responsibility American Association for the Advancement ... more details

Examples of enterprising scientific organizations Each of the organizations listed below, have the ability to conduct scientific research on an extended basis, involving multiple researchers over an extended time. Generally, the research is funded not only for the science itself, but for some application which shows promise for the enterprise. But the researchers, if left to their own choices, will tend to follow their research interest, which is essential for the long term health of their chosen field. Note that a successful scientific enterprise is not equivalent to a successful high tech enterprise or to a successful business enterprise, but that they form an ecology, a Process of scientific change, or progress food chain .
