The Anticipatory Governance of Emerging Technologies
摘要
The Center for Nanotechnology in Society at Arizona State University (CNS-ASU) is a
Nano-scale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) funded by the US National Science
Foundation (NSF). It implements an agenda of “real-time technology assessment” (RTTA)
in pursuit of a strategic vision of the “anticipatory governance” of nanotechnologies. To achieve this vision, CNS-ASU unifies research programs not only across several universities
but also across three critical, component activities: foresight (of plausible future scenarios),
integration (of social science and humanities research with nano-scale science and engineering), and engagement (of publics in deliberations). CNS-ASU also performs educational and
training activities as well as public outreach and informal science education. This paper elaborates the Center’s strategic vision of anticipatory governance and its component activities,
especially in the context of extending the concerns of societal dimensions research beyond
the traditional risk paradigm.
中文摘要
亚利桑那州立大学纳米技术社会中心(CNS-ASU)是一个美国国家科学院资助的纳米科学与工程中心基金会(NSF)。它实施了“实时技术评估”(RTTA)议程追求纳米技术“预期治理”的战略愿景。为了实现这一愿景,CNS-ASU不仅在几所大学统一了研究项目而且还涉及三个关键的组成部分活动:预见(可能的未来情景),(社会科学和人文科学研究与纳米科学和工程的)融合,以及(公众参与审议)。CNS-ASU还执行教育和培训活动以及公众宣传和非正式科学教育。本文阐述了该中心的预期治理战略愿景及其组成活动,特别是在将社会维度研究的关注点扩展到传统的风险范式。
