“…Setting out to explore contributions to a specific research question makes this review rather old-fashioned. We do not apply semi-automatic (keyword- or journal-based) download and mapping procedures that have gained ground in reviewing [Martin 2012; Perkmann et al 2013; Trousset 2014]. Instead, we used our own knowledge of the literature and conducted a problem-driven search that relied on snowballing from references.…”

“…Recent reviews of science policy studies, or science policy and innovation studies, see them as detached from the sociology of science [Martin 2012; Martin et al . 2012; Trousset 2014]. Jasanoff’s [2010] perspective is an exception because she sees both fields as belonging to the large interdisciplinary enterprise of science, technology and society ( sts ) studies, albeit without specifying any interactions between the fields that would justify this assessment.…”

This review explores contributions by science policy studies and the sociology of science to our understanding of the impact of governance on research content. Contributions are subsumed under two perspectives, namely an "impact of"-perspective that searches for effects of specific governance arrangements and an "impact on"-perspective that asks what factors contribute to the construction of research content and includes governance among them. Our review shows that little is known so far about the impact of governance on knowledge content. A research agenda does not necessarily need to include additional empirical phenomena but must address the macro-micro-macro link inherent to the question in its full complexity, and systematically exploit comparative approaches in order to establish causality. This requires interdisciplinary collaboration between science policy studies, the sociology of science, and bibliometrics, which all can contribute to the necessary analytical toolbox.
