Its

&gt; &gt; Why can't we use these issues as an offensive platform
&gt; &gt; rather than dancing around them?
&gt;
&gt; Fine idea. Suggestions? </segment>

Discussion on democracy and science has floated through talk about how to
respond to the backlash.</segment>
<segment id="4" parent="30" relname="span"> I wonder how many people on this list are
familiar with some of the Nordic attempts to promote substantive
democratic discourse over technoscience issues? </segment>

direct experience,</segment>
<segment id="6" parent="22" relname="span"> the Danish consensus conferences look like the most
interesting innovation.</segment>
<segment id="7" parent="19" relname="span"> These involve assembling a group of lay people
in a specific local area to discuss their concerns regarding a particular
technoscience initiative (e.g., bio-technology), and using staff to help
them formulate a set of questions.</segment>
<segment id="8" parent="7" relname="elaboration"> These are referred to a panel of
experts for answers. </segment>
<segment id="9" parent="20" relname="sequence"> The "Consensus conference" itself involves
assembling both groups to meet over a couple days in a community venue,</segment>
<segment id="10" parent="20" relname="sequence">
and then the lay people write up a report of their conclusions.</segment>
<segment id="11" parent="20" relname="elaboration"> Several

accompanied by media coverage and publicity. </segment>

The Danes I have met claim that while the Danish are generally the most
skeptical of the Fenno-Scandians about technology,</segment>

to move forward more quickly on specific technological initiatives than
other Nordic countries.</segment>

conference process has something to do with this result. </segment>

In any case, the conferences offer one model of how to make technoscience
discourse more democratic.</segment>
