Science And Democracy: Making Knowledge And Making Power In The Biosciences And Beyond (Genetics And Society)

Science and Democracy advances a systematic, yet detailed, co-productionist understanding of how emerging modes of making knowledge in genomics and other fields (e.g., nanotechnology, informatics, climate research) are simultaneously and reciprocally remaking social order, empowering and disempowering groups of citizens, creating new forms of legitimate expertise, and redistributing wealth and power.
