The article raises the problem of conflicting axionormative models, diagnosing the phenomenon of anomie in the system of science in Poland. The content of the paper is based on in-depth interviews with experts who work in the system of science (scientists, research project leaders, scientific editors-in-chief) and experts who cooperate with scientists (scientific journalists, administrative management staff). The article recalls the concepts of post-academic and post-normal science, ethical “declarative” models, as well as diverse models of “factual” cultures, demonstrated in many ethical and non-ethical actions. The article identifies areas of normative contrasts related to scientific policies which correspond with the processes of science globalization, as well as ways of doing research, additionally determined by scientific mobility. The presented paper deepens the understanding of the changing normative patters in the system of science from the grassroots perspective, with the application of the humanistic coefficient.
