      ab: As he writes, "The first one encompassed the agency's legislative origins and the debate about whether the social sciences should be included, followed by the initial development of NSF social science policies, programs, and practices during the Alpert years. This is partly self-reinforcing, because the small NSF social science budget means that little funding is available, so that it makes no sense for researchers to engage with NSF (in my years at NSF, all of the social sciences together had a budget about the same size as that for mathematics and statistics combined, much smaller fields). Among other things, that means that when the NSF social science budget (or individual funded projects) are attacked, there is little or no pressure on Congress or the media from the academic social science community. On the other hand, I social science as science i limits what can be done with NSF support and limits the extent to which the broader social science community is willing to support NSF politically.
