The “particular efficacy of scientific metaphors” (Evelyn Fox Keller, 2000) depends on social resources as well as technological and material ones. The reality is constructed not only by language, but the discussion helps to maintain the presence of science in a globalized world. The language of science has not only cognitive functions but also a political scope. Among others, this responsibility belongs to the university; the social and human sciences must occupy the central place that they deserve. To define a policy of science we need to reconcile the perspective of science embedded in: 1) researchers, as producers and transmitters of knowledge; 2) the State, as the principal policy advisor and supplier of financial resources for the national scientific and technological system; and 3) companies, not only as recipients of scientific innovations but also as applicants, even though their investment in the scientific and technological system is less significant. Analyzing these factors and their interactions is the aim of this paper.
