Science and technological innovation wield unfathomable power in
the shaping of social life and the environment. Yet, the democratic
control and shaping of technology remains at best an unfinished
project, not least due to dominant paradigms of governance
implicitly that have historically delegated the good to market
forces. This Element explores responsible innovation as an emergent
discourse in governing science and society relations. Specifically,
it explores the making of responsible innovation through three
lenses: first, as a way of reconfiguring the concept of
responsibility in science governance with far-reaching implications
for scientific culture and practice; second, as a way of injecting
agency through deliberative methods aimed at anticipating and
deliberating upon the kinds of possible worlds that science and
technology bring into being; and third, as a framework for
governing innovation sensitive to the dynamics of specific
technologies and to the particular socio-political context in which
innovation develops.
