| Abstract: |
This article discusses studies and political initiatives concerned with enhancing public involvement in major technological decisions. It argues that such decisions should include a significant role for the mass media, and respect for the diverse relations between science and governance. The notion of `regulated worlds' is proposed as a starting point in a discourse that brings together the mass media, science management, and deliberative democracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
