dc.descriptionThis article shows how the Universities and higher education and research institutions obey more and more to criteria of profitability and effectiveness, following the example of the industry. The Universities and the academic communities are the main producers of knowledge, which is not quantifiable and, therefore, cannot find an equivalent in money, which is quantifiable. Many scientists intend to establish a connection between knowledge and money, using for that a set of criteria of evaluation. Being useless these criteria, the scientists resort to a system of honour, but the science is essentially normal knowledge.
