Kedmon,
Thank you for raising issues that had been bothering me also. A comparative analysis of university, government, and corporate science in the US alone might break the category of 'western science', if not that of the different 'schools' that tend to align with the work of major scientists that sometime span political and ideological boundaries.
I wonder what Latour experts could offer of the findings from his work.
