Abstract |
In the controversies about nanotechnologies, NGOs have called for participation in science policy development. At the same time, many research institutions consider that researchers have a responsibility to address the risk issues. This communication shows that participation and responsibility come into tension with each other, given the demand for researchers' autonomy vis-à-vis political and economic decision-makers, but also civil society. Keywords- Nanotechnology, Risks, Research, Scientific Policy, Civil Society | |||||||||
