Orders and Prohibitions for Sale? Moral Theology at the Time of Knowledge Commercialization

Tadeusz Zadykowicz



Abstract

Nowadays, very strong aspirations aiming to link science with the economy, are known. These aspirations create specific problems for human sciences, which don't generate products, technology and patents for sale, and thereby they don't bring measurable benefits to industry and universities. Moral theology, which essential part is to define norms and prohibitions, may seem to be rather a suppresion brake for innovative economy than its driving force. However, moral theology provides practical indications which can give a more human character to the technological development. It is possible only when its relationship with business at the level of scientific research will be as small as possible, and its financing completely independent from the market law.

Keywords:

knowledge commercialization, moral theology, humanities, higher education, innovation, know-how
