Synopsis "Risk and Trust: Including or Excluding Citizens? (in English)"

Criticizing the idea that new technologies are independent of the society in which they are created, this up-to-date analysis explains the concept of the "risk society" and the benefits of technological change. By exploring a broad range of case studies--including young women in conflict with the law, child soldiers, welfare recipients, genetic testing, biotechnology, and new technologies--the Contributors explore whether the concept of risk has undermined a sense of trust in society. As this multidisciplinary collection illustrates, peeling back the veneer of this often highly technocratic discourse reveals a series of moral judgments about the constitution of risk and its role in organizing contemporary society.
