Abstract
At least since the formation of the Royal Society in 1660,
science has envisioned itself as a global enterprise. Science is
often touted as neutral territory concerned with the pursuit
of truth independent of political or other biases. All
scientists, on this view, share a common ethos, regardless of
country, creed, race, or gender. With the increasing
globalization of science, however, cultural differences
between scientists from around the world have been
recognized as an increasing problem (Suresh 2011).
