The relationship between science and science \& society and consequent civilizing by science is centred on the possibility that the society effetely developed a fundamental organization in capacity to absorb science and produce technologies (i.e., water and electrical supply, transportation systems etc.) of course and technically that lacked in the past. Subsequently, a development civilization was necessary parallel to development of the science within society? Is effetely happened that? Did scientific works develop as a response to the needs of society? It is always necessary to begin a historical research {\textendash} also a research concerning the relations between science and society in a determined period {\textendash} from the alive, both theoretical and technical work of the scientists. If, in the analysis of the whole work of a scientist, the historian of science reveals some unclearness or internal inconsistencies or a lack of coherence between the methods used by this scientist in different works of his and if all these questions cannot be explained either with technical problems (for example the lack or the misunderstanding of certain mathematical methods) or with the general methodological and epistemological convictions of the scientist himself, then it is necessary to think of the general structure of the society in that period. Therefore technical analysis of the results and methods used by the scientist is a priori considered and then evaluated within civilization. }, keywords = {history of science, science education, society studies}, issn = {1822-7864}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.33225/pec/13.55.04}, url = {http://oaji.net/articles/2014/457-1420054822.pdf}, author = {Raffaele Pisano} }
