Youth and Science: Between Possibilities of Profession and Challenges of calling (round table discussion dedicated to M. Weber’s article "Science as calling and profession")
On November 21, 2020, the Dubna University hosted a round table dedicated to the famous work of M. Weber "Science as a vocation and profession", which was attended by university professors, graduate students of all directions. M. Weber's call to rethink the role of science and the scientist as a socially responsible person is more than relevant in connection with the new directions of research development and the changed place of science in society. The question of the values of science in the historical and social context again and again arises as an impulse for the reflection of young scientists about the motives and possibilities of self-realization in the space of science. The speeches of the participants were built around the problems of modern science and scientific communication, the training of young scientists through the institute of postgraduate studies, its role in the educational process and ensuring scientific continuity.
