| Sumario: | Currently, the complexity of global problems, such as pandemics and the economic recession, the rise of political and religious extremisms of the most varied orders, such as anti-vaccine movements and the “waves” of “fake news” in the creation of false “myths” and in the spread of lies, and the spread of pseudo-scientific currents, such as “terraplanismo”, deny the validity of scientific knowledge and, therefore, threaten the future of humanity. In this dark context, a large part of society, as a reaction to these movements, defends the increasing role of science in the political life of society and in national and international public policy decisions. With that, the idea of “science diplomacy” gained strength in academic and political forums. Thus, this text is a translation of the article “New frontiers in science diplomacy Navigating the changing balance of power” by the Royal Society and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). This is one of the founding texts of "scientific diplomacy" in the world, as it works with key concepts, such as "science in diplomacy", "diplomacy for science", "science for diplomacy". In addition, he does some case studies on the importance of scientific diplomacy. |
