| Sumario: | This article discusses the limits and possibilities of utilizing science as a basis for policy decision making. Based on 28 interviews, it analyzes the means by which these social actors involved with the elaboration of three public policies for biodiversity conservation in the state of Rio de Janeiro (RJ, Brazil) make use of scientific knowledge. At least four configurations of interrelations between the scientific and policy realm were identified: (1) when science serves as the technical basis for policy decision making; (2) when the resort to science is intermediated by technical understanding which “translates” scientific knowledge; (3) when scientific knowledge is dismissed as not corresponding to hegemonic political interests; (4) when science is also perceived as apolitical field of dispute. Results contribute towards developing a critique of linearity in the formulation of public policies based on scientific evidence.CARNEIRO, Maria José; ROSA, Teresa da Silva.
