Abstract
Science policy implements a social contract. In the US since World War II, this arrangement has amounted to society—through government—giving science both money and relative autonomy while, in return, reaping the practical benefits that inevitably result. The arrangement once may have been appropriate, but it no longer is; we now need a new understanding of how science serves national needs.
