  2. 1. Gene technology at stake : Swedish governmental commissions on the border of science and politics

    Author : Jenny Eklöf; Kjell Jonsson; Christer Nordlund; Susanne Lundin; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Gene technology; biotechnology; recombinant DNA technology; bioethics; ethics; risk; GMO; embryo; transgenic organisms; boundary organization; boundary object; governmental commission; regulatory policy; Sweden; public; expertise; democracy; History of science and ideas; Idé- o lärdomshistoria;

    Abstract : This thesis examines the Swedish political response to the challenges posed by gene technology, seen through the prism of governmental commissions. It discerns and analyses continuities and changes in the Swedish political conception of gene technology, over the course of two decades, 1980–2000. READ MORE
