Cover of Kirsten Mensch & Jan C. Schmidt: Technik und Demokratie (PDF)

Wissenschaft und Technik prägen die Zukunft von Mensch, Natur und Gesellschaft immer tiefgreifender. Können wir den beschleunigten und zugleich problematisch gewordenen wissenschaftlich-technologischen Wandel adäquat gestalten – möglichst in demokratisch legitimer Art und Weise?

Ob ‘Zukunftswissenschaften’ und ‘Zukunftstechnologien’ demokratiefähig und demokratieverträglich sind, ist eine offene und zugleich gesellschaftlich drängende Frage. Sind Bio- und Gentechnologien, Nano- und Medizintechnologien, Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien mit unserem gewachsenem demokratischen Selbstverständnis, mit den eingeübten Entscheidungsverfahren kompatibel? Über welche prinzipiellen Möglichkeiten und pragmatischen Instrumente zur demokratischen Gestaltung von ‘Zukunftstechnologien’ verfügen wir?
