治理网络视角下新兴技术治理的社会公众角色演变

Evolution of Social Public Role in Governance of Emerging Technologies from the Perspective of Governance Network

新兴技术治理中社会公众的意见与建议、感情与情绪受到了越来越多的关注。社会公众的强烈反对与争议能够影响政策决策的执行,但社会公众在政策决策中的主要角色和作用仍然没有得到清晰阐释。为了提升新兴技术治理绩效,从网络视角切入,基于治理网络理论的3种公共行动分析方法,以转基因技术作为新兴技术研究对象,分析我国社会公众在新兴技术治理中的角色定位。研究发现,我国社会公众角色不够完善,仅发挥了监管者和促进者的作用。由此提出,分配新兴技术治理行动者的决策权、建立审议参与式的公众参与程序、培育社会公众主动参与的审议环境等相关政策建议。
