In recent years the concept of circular economy gained prominence in EU policy-making. The promotes a future which linear ‘make-use-dispose’ cultures are replaced by more models. this paper, we use sociotechnical imaginaries to ask how an imaginary circularity has been assembled and stabilized, imaginative resources were drawn on, goals, priorities, benefits risks haven merged with discourses innovation, sustainability growth. Drawing on policy documents interviews officers European...
In research and teaching on ethical aspects of emerging sciences technologies, the structure working environments, spaces relationships play a significant role. Many routines standard practices academic life, however, do little to actively explore experiment with these elements. They even less address importance contextual embodied dimensions thinking. To engage dimensions, we have benefitted significantly from that take us out seminar rooms, offices laboratories as well beyond traditional...
There is currently a strong focus on responsible research in relation to the development of nanoscience and nanotechnology. This study presents series conversations with nanoresearchers, 'European Commission recommendation code conduct for nanosciences nanotechnologies research' (EC-CoC) as its point departure. Six types reactions document are developed, illustrating diversity existing within scientific community responses towards this kind new approaches governance. Three broad notions...
Risk and responsibility have always been linked philosophically in the Western tradition. The purpose of this article is to discuss possible alternatives centrality risk discourse, arguing that such call for a revision concept responsibility, decoupling it from aspirations control over Nature future. It implies also more complex relation between knowledge action. Rather than believing contemporary global challenges will be sufficiently met by being responsible under risk, we explore how stay...
Recent years have witnessed a growing interest in the water-energy-food (WEF) nexus both academia and policy. This concept draws attention to link between different environmental societal domains, potentially entails substantive shifts governance processes. As consequence, policy-makers scientists started develop metrics make these interactions 'trade-offs' visible. However, it is unknown if current framings of relevant quantified either reinforce or challenge existing structures. paper...
By a series of calls within the Horizon 2020 framework programme, EU funded projects intended to deploy Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) at territorial level, in regional research innovation ecosystems. This paper presents efforts document evaluate achievements TRANSFORM, one these projects.Evaluative inquiry theoretical reasoning.Noting need for general principle be interpreted, adapted translated order rendered meaningful local we studied precisely multiple translations RRI,...
This article is concerned with how the development of mixed methods research influenced by many aspects human interplay occurring between researchers representing different disciplines. It examines findings from interviews, field notes, and written documentation a case study involving team health science doing on athletes knee injuries. The experienced that they did not succeed in integrating quantitative qualitative data collected this research. From data, multiplicity forms identified...
The steady increase in production volume of salmon aquaculture has sharpened concerns about its sustainability. In particular the feed is a reason for concern given reliance on scarce natural resources, such as wild fish captures. Multi-scale integrated analysis put forward tool to anticipate environmental and socio-economic impacts large-scale implementation alternative feeds, considering both plant insect sources potential replacements meal oil. proposed accounting framework, based...
Abstract The problem of developing research and innovation in accordance with society’s general needs values has received increasing attention policy. In the last 7 years, concept “Responsible Research Innovation” (RRI) gained prominence this regard, along resulting question how best to integrate awareness about science–society relations into daily practices higher education. context, post-graduate training been seen as a promising entrance point, but tool-kit approaches more frequently have...
It is widely known that there exists a multitude of possible explanations for the maintenance sex; however, it less clear how to handle such an explanatory pluralism. In this paper, we address one older and more recent discussion on what might constitute good theory sex find they reflect trade-off between maximizing scientific virtues generalism, realism, precision. A historical analysis indicates varying research interests backgrounds different biologists shape trade-off. We use reflection...
The value of shared decision-making and decision aids (DA) has been well documented yet remain difficult to integrate into clinical practice. We wanted investigate needs challenges regarding about advanced lung cancer treatment after first-line therapy, focusing on DA applicability.Qualitative data from separate, semi-structured focus groups with patients/relatives healthcare professionals were analysed using systematic text condensation. 12 patients incurable cancer, seven relatives, nurses...
In the Amacayacu National Park in Colombia, which partially overlaps with Indigenous territories, several elements of an inclusive protected area management model have been implemented since 1990s. particular, a dialogue between scientific researchers, indigenous people and park staff has promoted for co-production biological cultural knowledge decision-making. This paper, based on four-year ethnographic study park, shows how products about different components socio-ecosystem neither were...
Abstract The development of converging technologies (CTs) closely interacting with the human body might become one great challenges for science and technology governance in years to come. This paper compares visions recommendations on CT policies by Roco Bainbridge those high-level expert group EU (authored Nordmann), documents differences their respective conceptualizations uncertainty, complexity future. While argue urgency technological development, Nordmann recommends a thorough social...
