This article aims at a critical reevaluation of the trading zone concept (Galison). It starts from a case study of the Faraday–Whewell collaboration in coming to terms with electrolysis experiments. The case is supposed to be an example of a trade zone of science/philosophy interaction though it demonstrates the unequal nature of the “trade.” This requires the analysis to log in some details concerning Galison’s metaphor of trading zones, which reveals its market-oriented connotations. The following criticism of the market metaphor for science applies a revised version of Boris Hessen’s argument (“commodity fetishism”) against misinterpretation of technology by some British scientists. A closer look at the ancient trade rituals in Marcel Mauss’ seminal work enables discovering another cultural pattern for describing scientific communication as opposed to trade—gift. This helps picture science as a distribution of social roles and statuses and uncovers the normative and value dimension of gift zones language.

礼物与贸易:科学传播文化

本文旨在重新评估贸易区概念(Galison)。它以法拉第与惠氏合作的案例研究为起点,开始进行电解实验。尽管该案证明了“贸易”的不平等性质,但它应该是科学/哲学相互作用的贸易区的一个例子。这就要求分析记录关于加里森贸易区隐喻的一些细节,从而揭示出其市场导向的内涵。以下对科学市场隐喻的批评采用了鲍里斯·黑森(Boris Hessen)的论点(“商品拜物教”)的修订版,反对某些英国科学家对技术的误解。仔细研究马塞尔·莫斯(Marcel Mauss)开创性著作中的古代贸易习惯,可以发现另一种文化形式,用以描述与贸易相对的科学交流-礼物。这有助于将图片科学作为社会角色和地位的分布,并揭示礼品区语言的规范和价值维度。
