GOMEZ, Amparo. Boundaries and integrity in the "Social Contract for Spanish Science", 1907-1939. Dynamis [online]. 2014, vol.34, n.2, pp.465-487. ISSN 2340-7948.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/S0211-95362014000200010.

This article analyzes the relationship between science and politics in Spain in the early 20th century from the perspective of the Social Contract for Science. The article shows that a genuine social contract for science was instituted in Spain during this period, although some boundary and integrity problems emerged. These problems are analyzed, showing that the boundary problems were a product of the conservative viewpoint on the relationship between science and politics, while the integrity problems involved the activation of networks of influence in the awarding of scholarships to study abroad. Finally, the analysis reveals that these problems did not invalidate the Spanish social contract for science
