Brice Laurent argues that nanotechnology is a lens through which one can build a theoretical and practical approach to the study of contemporary democracies, exploring the joint production of nanotechnology itself and democratic order and identifying questions related to the exercise of citizenship, forms of national sovereignty, and channels of political legitimacy. This book helps increase visibility of and accessibility to STS methodologies for scholars and practitioners outside the field of science, technology, and society. 606 $aDemocracy$zUnited States 606 $aDemocracy$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aScience and state$zUnited States 606 $aScience and state$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aNanotechnology$xGovernment policy$zUnited States 606 $aNanotechnology$xGovernment policy$zEuropean Union countries 606 $aNanotechnology$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States 606 $aNanotechnology$xPolitical aspects$zEuropean Union countries 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aDemocracy 615 0$aScience and state 615 0$aScience and state 615 0$aNanotechnology$xGovernment policy 615 0$aNanotechnology$xGovernment policy 615 0$aNanotechnology$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aNanotechnology$xPolitical aspects 676 $a338.94/06 700 $aLaurent$b Brice$0799956 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910219866503321 996 $aDemocratic experiments$92076603 997 $aUNINA
