description While a great many scientists and engineers feel that science and politics do not mix, political theorists feel completely free to talk about the influence of politics on science and technology. The author does not try to resolve this curious anomaly. Indeed, he simply assumes as background the body of literature by political theorists on science, technology and society. What the paper does is sort out that literature, picking out some of the principal types. A second aim of the paper is to urge scientists and engineeers not to ignore this body of literature; becoming familiar with it may even help them in practical efforts to deal with such issues as government regulation of science and technology.
