The modern discourse of science is still established as the episteme of our times. It is present in many research and extension projects like the one of the Education and Science National Network, linking many universities across the country. In this study, we sought analyzing the science discourse of southern groups from the Network. Weused some foucaultian tools of discourse analysis to investigate the interviews with researchers and observers of these groups. We noticed that many respondents link their speeches to the modern aspect of science due to different contexts. However, some cracks and flexibilizations have been happening in the discourses of some groups, producing a loosening of the recurrent discourse of science.
