Who is the father of civics

Answer: Benjamin Franklin is generally regarded as the nation’s first model for the civic scientist role. He realized the difficulty of anticipatory, diversified, and cross-cultural encounters. His area of interest and expertise was in the scientific field, but he was also concerned with societal issues. 

As scientists working in a world that is far more volatile than Franklin’s, we are confronted with a culture and a movement that we, as scientists, have contributed to in a variety of different ways.
