SANTIAGO, Rui; CARVALHO, Teresa  and  FERREIRA, Andreia. Portuguese universities and entrepreneurial research: Where are the differences?. Anál. Social [online]. 2013, n.208, pp.594-620. ISSN 0003-2573.

In recent years some discussions have emerged around the changes in the epistemological, ethical, and social issues involving science today. Particularly influential in these changes were the “knowledge society” and managerialism/New Public Management (NPM) narratives. The notions of “post-academic science”, “Mode 2 of knowledge production”, and the acronym PLACE have been used to characterize changes in science. This paper asks if the way research is presented in the Portuguese public universities website expresses the influence of these new notions of science. It reveals that there is a certain ambiguity in the discourses, which configures the phenomenon of hybridity.

Keywords : public universities; Portugal; scientific research; science.
