The historical backbone of the discourse of commercialization of scientific research in the world is tied to the end of the Cold War. At this historic juncture, the institutions that emerged during World War II and later during the Cold War to direct, frame, and manage scientific and technological activities were gradually reconfigured. The neoliberal extremist version of this discourse has been around since the mid-1980s and has left profound changes in the organization and praxis of the institution of science. The most notable of these developments has been the rollback of governments in the widespread financial support of universities and public research. At the same time, in the 1980s in the United States, for the first time in these decades, the amount of private sector support from research exceeded federal support. This paper compares the modern wave of commercialization of scientific research with the norms proposed by renowned American sociologist Robert K Merton to describe the essential virtues of academia. An in-depth analysis of this shows us that the new ethical values resulting from the commercialization of science are in serious conflict with the Merton norms, and so as the wave of commercialization progresses, we must wait for the collapse of Merton academia.
