Science parks are becoming established in increasing numbers in
almost all parts of the world. Promoted as places on the frontiers
of science where a new breed of scientist-entrepreneur invents a
new future, extolled as high-status workplaces where a new style of
employee and flexible labour process is in the making, they are
seen as the potential saviours of local and national economies.
High-Tech Fantasies criticises the divisive hype of science parks
arguing that both the theory and practice are unproductive for the
economy and for any socially progressive science and technology.
Questioning responsibility, innovation and symbolism, the authors
explore the mutual determination of society, science and space.
