Abstract

To think about consuming social science is also to think about producing social science. This chapter considers various viewpoints on the production and consumption of social science as a publicly funded service that this contracted, delivered and consumed; and indeed questions whether it is appropriate to discuss social science in these terms at all. It considers how these perspectives relate to the governance of social science, and, ultimately, to the social science of governance.
