The seemingly unlimited technological potential of nanotechnology
brings with it new practices of governance, networking, and
exercising power and agency. Focusing on scholars in the Global
South, this text covers nanotechnology discourses, imaginaries, and
materialities as they circulate and interact within governance
knowledge networks. Rather than adapt their actions to existing
governance mechanisms and science, technology, and innovation
policy, scientists use the imaginary of nanotechnology to create
new symbolic and material incentives, thus shaping its governance.
By tracing the constantly shifting asymmetries of knowledge and
power, the book offers fresh insights into the dynamics of
knowledge networks.
