This accessible book introduces students to perspectives from the
field of science and technology studies. Putting forward the thesis
that science and democracy share important characteristics, it
shows how authority cannot be taken for granted and must
continuously be reproduced and confirmed by others. At a time when
fundamental scientific and democratic values are being threatened
by sceptics and populist arguments, an understanding of the
relationship between them is much needed. This is an invaluable
resource for all who are interested in the role of scientific
knowledge in governance, societal developments and the implications
for democracy and concerned publics and citizen engagement.
