Abstract:

Organized scientific research is not only an important form of modern scientific development and knowledge innovation, but also has become a policy option to promote scientific and technological innovation in countries around the world, and increasingly relies on the power of collective action to improve the efficiency of scientific research and achieve the goal of organized scientific research. While following the logical path of transforming collective goals into individual actions, establishing proper and orderly knowledge division and cooperation system and multi-agent interaction and communication knowledge production network, organized scientific research also faces the dilemma of collective action, such as the conflict between individual academic purview and common goals, the conflict of knowledge interaction in organized scientific research and the hidden danger of complex structure. To stimulate the power of collective action in organized research, alternative strategies involved are suggested as follows. The individual will of the participants is transformed into collective commitment and common contract; the division of labor and cooperation system is established to clarify the roles and responsibilities of different participants in organized scientific research; and the governance system of open interaction and democratic consultation is constructed to give play to the agglomeration advantages of the knowledge interaction network of organized scientific research participants.

Key words: organized scientific research, collective action
