Transformation of Models of Interaction between Science and Society: From the Dialogical Model of Popularization to the Network Structure of Citizen Science

This article examines the transformation of models of interaction between science and society in the second half of the 20th century and the early 21st century, taking into account significant changes in communication between them and processes of deinstitutionalization characteristic of contemporary societies. The main attention is paid to the critical analysis of the processes of popularization of scientific knowledge and peculiarities of interaction between professional researchers and science enthusiasts under conditions of network communications. We have identified the main models of interaction between science and society, which include various features of communication between academics and the public. One of the main results of the study is the identification of points of contact between the interests of professional scientists and science enthusiasts. This can contribute to more effective cooperation and knowledge exchange between these groups.
