Energy Futures: Five Dilemmas of the Practice of Anticipatory Governance
摘要
Public participation has become standard practice in both environmental communication and science and technology studies, with such engagement increasingly moving “upstream” to the early stages of technological development. One framework for these activities is anticipatory governance, in which foresight and public and stakeholder engagement are used to reflect on—and direct—the impacts of new technology. In this essay we draw on our experience of anticipatory governance, in the shape of the “NanoFutures” project on energy futures, to present a reflexive analysis of engagement and deliberation. We draw out five tensions of the practice of deliberation on energy technologies. Through tracing the lineages of these dilemmas, we discuss some of the implications of these tensions for the practice of civic engagement and deliberation in a set of questions for this community of practitioner-scholars.
中文摘要
公众参与已成为环境交流和科学技术研究的标准做法,这种参与越来越多地“上游”到技术发展的早期阶段。 这些活动的一个框架是预期治理,其中使用远见以及公众和利益相关者的参与来反思和指导新技术的影响。 在这篇文章中,我们借鉴了我们在能源期货“纳米未来”项目形式下的预期治理经验,对参与和审议进行了反思性分析。 我们列出了能源技术审议实践的五个张力。 通过追溯这些困境的血统,我们讨论了这些紧张局势对公民参与实践和审议这一实践学者社区的一系列问题的一些影响。
