	Max Planck Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Max Planck Institutes operate independently from, though in close cooperation with, the universities, and focus on innovative research which does not fit into the university structure due to their interdisciplinary or transdisciplinary nature or which require resources that cannot be met by the state universities.
		The Max Planck Society was founded in Göttingen after World War II in 1948 as the successor organization to the Prussian Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gesellschaft, which was established in 1911 as an non-governmental research organization named for the then German emperor.

		Pure history re duces the science it studies to the field of investigation which is assigned to it by the researchers of the epoch, and to the genre of view they cast on the field.
		The very notion of the precursor for him is the paradigmatic expression of a historiography of science that co nfounds the object of the history of science with the object of science itself.
		Practising the history of science is thus a constant constructive effort: The history of the sciences has to be {\i made} and {\i remade}, and it cannot simply be described once for ever.

		The Institute for the History of Science is devoted to the development of a theoretically oriented history of science which studies scientific thinking and knowledge acquisition in their historical development and their interaction with the cultural, technical, and social contexts of science.
		While mathematics and the natural sciences form the principal objects of research at the Institute, the methodologies applied are rooted in the humanities, and in particular in studies of human culture and cognition.
		For example, a working environment for the transcription, editing, and translation of documents in the history of science is currently being applied to the preparation of an electronic edition of Galileo's manuscripts on mechanics.
