Abstract
In this paper, we provide a critical overview of Feyerabend’s unpublished manuscript “On the Responsibility of Scientists.” Specifically, we locate the paper within Feyerabend’s corpus and show how it relates to his published remarks on topics such as expertise, democracy and science, opportunism, science funding, and the value of scientific knowledge. We also show how Feyerabend’s views anticipate and point novel directions for contemporary philosophical literature on values in science.
