|Question=What is '''scientific community'''? Can it be defined as more than simply “the bearer of a mosaic”?
|Topic Type=Definitional
|Description=As soon as discussions about the laws of scientific change and the field of [[Scientonomy|scientonomy]] began, scientonomists have consistently asked the questions of how to define and how to identify scientific communities. Although the term is constantly used by scientonomists, it currently lacks a scientonomic definition.
Among other things, a proper scientonomic definition of the term would help clarify the scope of scientonomy.
|Authors List=Nicholas Overgaard,
|Formulated Year=2015
|Prehistory=Scientific communities have been defined and identified variously by historians, philosophers and sociologists of science. In what follows, three waves of interpretations of scientific communities will be presented. It should be emphasized that these waves are not indicative of all attempts at defining scientific communities.
• Is there a difference between producing knowledge and acquiring knowledge? If there is a difference, then is a community that holds a mosaic a knowledge-producing community or a knowledge-acquiring community, or do both kinds of communities hold mosaics?
