Description of Study
Science policy seeks to influence scientific practice while avoiding the epistemic risks of political overreach. I argue that contemporary, institution-oriented science policy plausibly aspires to an ideal I call scientific antipaternalism: policymakers should refrain from endorsing a substantive conception of the epistemic good. The credit economy approach in social epistemology seems a natural ally, abstracting away from epistemic values by focusing on science's reward structure. But this appearance is misleading. Credit institutions function against the background of a scientific ethos: a shared set of values defining good scientific behaviour. Policies targeting credit institutions therefore inevitably endorse or reshape epistemic values, making value-neutral science policy impossible.
