This paper explicates a central conflict that can affect science research organizations, the conflict between the anti-bureaucratic stance believed to advance science and concerns for gender equity rooted in the universalist ethos of science. We present a case study of a science research organization, using employment and publication records, a survey of 308 employees, and qualitative interviews with 60 employees. We show how anti-bureaucratic organizational structures perpetuate gender inequities for both female scientists and non-scientists.
本文阐述了一个可能影响科学研究组织的核心冲突,即推进科学的反官僚立场与科学普遍主义精神所根植的性别平等关注之间的冲突。我们通过使用就业和出版记录、对 308 名员工的调查以及对 60 名员工的定性访谈,对一个科学研究组织进行了案例研究。我们展示了反官僚组织结构如何使女性科学家和非科学家都长期处于性别不平等状态。
