Technologien unter Risikoverdacht - Risk Expert Christoph Meili's Blog on NZZvotum

Perception and assessments of complex technologies and their risks are dependent on the context and the perceived benefits. While the application of genetic engineering has been approved in the medical context, the "same" technology did not gain acceptance in the food and acriculture sector. Much like years ago with genetic engineering, the broad knowledge about nanotechnologies is still very limited today. However, the available information and one's own knowledge about a new technology are preconditios to foster an objective dialogue and come to personal decisions. Christoph Meili is blogging about these questions on NZZvotum.
