dc.description.abstract	The classical ideals of science can be seen as an example of the drive towards rationalisation in modern capitalistic societies. It is a specialized activity, based on sine ira et studio, modernism and a production orientation. Based on a case - the Holistic Learning Centre [name changed] situated in Copenhagen - we argue that a post-rational form of research activity is emerging which revert these features. We term this new type of research "enchanted research", "sciencetainment" and "Mode2-b research". The factors that facilitate this development include the boring style of conventional research, growing competition for research funds, more project funding compared to institutional funding and a demand for accountability. Countervailing forces also exist, however.	en_US
