Academic Science, Cultural Intransigence, and Devious Educo-Politics
Aikenhead, Glen S.
Cultural Studies of Science Education, v5 n3 p613-619 Sep 2010

In the context of political reality, a case is made for a science educator to hone strategies that co-opt, circumvent, or marginalize political adversaries before they do the same to you.
