description In this short response to Patrick Jackson’s absorbing and provocative keynote at a very enjoyable Millennium conference, I highlight some problems with the arguments presented therein for the logical distinctiveness of ‘science’, before briefly reflecting on the neoliberal pressures on universities globally and how these interact with ‘diversity’ issues. Speculatively, I suggest that they may be connected in this historical moment.
