THE PRAECISIO MUNDI THE MEASUREMENT OF SCIENCE AND THE CURTAILMENT THE UNIVERSITY AS A CULTURAL PROJECT

Resumen

This essay poses a philosophical question conducted as an historical investigation that end up in a sociological explanation around the measurement of science. Measuring, etymologically related to a praecisio (a closure, a mutilation) acquires its deepest meaning in a postontological era for describing the cultural implications of a world deprived of metaphysics. Based on a succinct account of the emergence of bibliometric thought framed by the early-twentieth-century historiographic debate between serial historians and historians of the event (histoire evenementielle), this essay join both postontological meaning and historical evidence into a sociological analysis of science and technology policies at the turn of the century Colombia which have led to a radical transformation of the university as a social institution, of the status of knowledge in contemporary society, and the identity of we scholars who inhabit that space.
