In an increasingly globalised world,\u00a0these processes have accelerated and intensified and, with cross-continental collaborations\u00a0and movement of personnel, ideas and attitudes have also spread. This includes ideas and\u00a0attitudes on the place of science in society and on scientists\u2019 social roles. Partly based on this\u00a0shared culture of scientists, but also driven by other globalisation factors in politics and\u00a0economics, science communication has over a relatively short period become a world-wide<br \/>\nphenomenon.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/doras.dcu.ie\/20156\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Download the full text here<\/a> (available as PDF)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When the first large-scale international conferences of science communication practitioners,\u00a0educators and researchers took place in the early 1990s, the panorama was very largely\u00a0restricted to western Europe and north America.
