当“科学技术是第一生产力”这个科学的论断被社会广泛认同的时候,加强经济发展中的科技含量,用先进的科学技术改造传统产业,发展知识经济加入国际竞争,逐步成为人们的共识。作为社会上先进生产力的代表,科学家这个群体更加为社会注目。科学家除了用自己的科技活动进行知识创新,直接和间接地为经济发展、社会进步、国家的实力增强做出贡献外,社会也要求科学家进入科学决策的领域。中国科学院不少从事自然科学研究的科学家被聘任为省、市和行业科技顾问,上千人担任了地区和行业行政领导岗位的科技副职,除了引进科技项目和进行科技服务外,已经承担了领导决策的任务。决策问题包括了科技经济发展战略、规划、计划的制定,也包括了一些重大政策问题、重大建设行为的决策,以及一些法规、制度的制定和具有政策导向性的行政事务的处理。科学家的参与决策过程无疑是历史的进步,是进行科学决策的重要保证。科学家参与决策有自己的优势:由于长期的科技实践活动,科学家对自己的专业领域有深入的了解和 When the scientific theory of science and technology is the primary productive force is widely recognized by society, it is necessary to strengthen the scientific and technological content in economic development, transform the traditional industries with advanced science and technology, develop the knowledge economy and join the international competition and gradually become the people’s consensus. As a representative of the advanced productive forces in society, the community of scientists is even more focused on society. In addition to using their own scientific and technological activities to carry out knowledge innovation, scientists contribute directly and indirectly to economic development, social progress and the enhancement of national strength, and society also requires scientists to enter the field of scientific decision-making. Many Chinese Academy of Sciences scientists engaged in natural science research have been hired as provincial, municipal and industry science and technology advisors. Thousands have assumed the posts of science and technology for leadership positions in the regions and industries. Apart from introducing science and technology projects and providing scientific and technological services, they have assumed leadership Decision-making task. Decision-making issues include the development of science and technology, economic strategy, planning, planning, but also includes some major policy issues, major construction decisions, as well as a number of laws and regulations, the formulation of the system and policy-oriented administrative services. The participation of scientists in the decision-making process is undoubtedly a historical advance and an important guarantee for making scientific decisions. Scientists have their own advantages in participating in decision-making: Due to long-term scientific and technological practice, scientists have in-depth knowledge of their fields of expertise and
