Participação cidadã, governança da ciência e tecnologia, expertise, tecnologias da humildade, riscoResumo
RESUMO:A partir de teorias recentes sobre a ciência na sociedade, tal como a abordagem do “Modo 2”, este artigo argumenta que os governos devem reconsiderar as relações existentes entre tomadores de decisões, experts e cidadãos na gestão da tecnologia. Formuladores de políticas precisam de uma série de “tecnologias da humildade” para avaliar sistematicamente o desconhecido e o incerto. Pontos focais apropriados para essasavaliações modestas são o enquadramento, vulnerabilidade, distribuição e aprendizado.
