Responsibility and New Models of Democracy in Science and Society Relationship<\/strong>
\nEdited by Giuseppe Pellegrini<\/a>
\nI libri della Fondazione Giannino Bassetti Rubbettino<\/a><\/em>, 2008<\/em><\/p>\n

The rhythm and all pervading nature of techno-scientific innovation and its products pose new questions for politicians, at a historical moment when decisions concerning public property and citizens’ life cannot be taken by \u00e9lite decision makers alone, in agreement with scientists or experts in various sectors. As a matter of fact, citizens today are more aware of issues that may have a strong public impact and therefore more demanding when asking questions about them. They ask for information and guarantees about the possible consequences of the introduction of innovative solutions. This change has different causes, and is in a good part due to the level of uncertainty generated by techno-scientific innovation that calls in doubt the reliability of scientific knowledge and the institutions transmitting it.
\nDuring recent years, together with the traditional tools of representative democracy, new participative procedures have been adopted which have been inspired by the need to democratically manage evaluation and decision making processes concerning techno-scientific innovation. This volume deals with the main issues concerning the relation between innovation and governance considering the limit and potential of these new approaches.<\/p>\n
