The axiological question of the role of economic values in the configuration of science is analyzed here following several steps: 1) the acceptance of the presence of values in science (among them, economic values in connection with scientific progress); 2) the clarification of the realms of values in science, which gives room for an “economics of science”; 3) the analysis of economic values in the internal perspective (cognitive and methodological), which is called “economy of research”; 4) the examination of external economic values of science as social activity and in the uses and applications of science; and 5) the assessment of the possibility of an “economic axiology of science” (i.e., the articulation of economic values as a system where economic dimension of rationality should have an important task). The paper seeks an alternative vision to those already available, insofar as it is looking for new aspects of economic values, such as those involved in scientific results or outcomes, in addition to those considered in scientific aims and processes.
