Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les nanotechnologies opèrent à l'échelle du nanomètre, l'ordre de grandeur de l'ADN, des protéines, des virus mais aussi des atomes que l'on est désormais capable de manipuler pour constituer de nouveaux matériaux ou façonner de nouveaux objets aux propriétés saisissantes. Comment ces nouveaux objets influencent-ils la manière dont la philosophie et l'éthique se construisent pour appréhender leurs enjeux spécifiques ? Les nanotechnologies modifient-elles les frontières traditionnelles ?...

Download or read book The Ethics of Nanotechnology Geoengineering and Clean Energy written by Andrew Maynard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-26 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanotechnology, clean technology, and geoengineering span the scale of human ingenuity, from the imperceptibly small to the unimaginably large. Yet they are united by a commonality of ethics that permeates how and why they are developed, and how the resulting consequences are managed. The articles in this volume provide a comprehensive account of current thinking around the ethics of development and use within each of the technological domains, and addresses challenges and opportunities that cut across all three. In particular, the collection provides unique insights into the ethics of ’noumenal’ technologies - technologies that are impossible to see or detect or conceive of with human senses or conventional tools. This collection will be of relevance to anyone who is actively involved with ensuring the responsible and sustainable development of nanotechnology, geoengineering or clean technology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La régulation des technologies émergentes soulève, dans les pays industrialisés, des attentes considérables de la part des publics- riverains, salariés ou encore consommateurs - potentiellement exposés aux risques qu’elles font naître, tout comme des industriels explorant de nouveaux marchés, et aussi des pouvoirs publics, garants du développement responsable de celles qu’ils tiennent des sources cruciales pour la croissance économique du 21e siècle. Le cycle de vie des nano-produits a été scruté pendant trois années dans le cadre du programme NanoNorma par une équipe interdisciplinaire de chercheurs rassemblant des juristes de toutes spécialités, mais aussi des chercheurs en nanosciences et une entreprise du secteur des nanomatériaux, la société Arkema. Toujours en construction, leur cadre normatif s’illustre par l’hétérogénéité des normes engagées et la persistance de doutes forts quant à la stratégie normative la plus appropriée. Cet ouvrage dresse le bilan des efforts de régulation entrepris en France pour asseoir le développement responsable des nanotechnologies. Des brevets, nombreux, sur lesquels s’appuie leur développement, à l’information des consommateurs, en passant par la protection des salariés qui participent à leur production et de l’environnement, toutes les étapes de leur cycle de vie sont étudiées, de façon prospective, en s’appuyant sur les données les plus récentes de leur régulation. Se fondant sur une analyse comparatiste de ce bilan, les auteurs explorent ensuite les défis qui se dressent, pour l’avenir, sur la route des technologies émergentes appelées de ses vœux par la société de la connaissance européenne.

Download or read book Nanoethics and Nanotoxicology written by Philippe Houdy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-09-13 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanobiotechnology is a fast developing field of research and application in many domains such as in medicine, pharmacy, cosmetics and agro-industry. The book addresses the lastest fundamental results on nanotoxicology and nanoethics, and the enormous range of potential applications in the fields of medical diagnostics, nanomedicine, and food and water administration. Nanoscale objects have properties leading to specific kinds of behaviour, sometimes exacerbating their chemical reactivity, physical behaviour, or potential to penetrate deeply within living organisms. Hence it is important to ensure the responsible and safe development of nanomaterials and nanotechnologies. This fourth volume in the Nanoscience series should make its mark, by presenting the state of the art in the fields of nanotoxicology and nanoethics. This is the first book to combine both scientific knowledge and ethical and social recommendations. It also presents specific policies on nanotechnologies set up by national and international authorities. This book is of interest to engineers, researchers, and graduate students.

This book was released on 2007 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chaque décennie apporte sa révolution en matière de nouvelles technologies. Hier c'étaient les technologies reproductives, la génétique, la génomique ou encore les cellules souches qui défrayaient la chronique. Aujourd'hui ce sont les nanotechnologies et leurs applications possibles en médecine et en santé, nanomédecine et nanosanté, qui alimentent le débat scientifique, éthique, social et juridique. Les découvertes scientifiques, couplées au développement des technologies, en accroissant les possibilités de modifier le système humain, ont augmenté la complexité des questionnements. Ces technologies, empreintes d'incertitude scientifique, pourraient-elles changer la conception fondamentale que nous avons de l'être humain et de sa liberté ? Qu'en sera-t-il des valeurs tels la dignité, l'intégrité, le respect de la vie privée, la justice et l'équité sociale ? Le présent ouvrage, issu du sixième séminaire d'experts de l'IIREB, propose les réflexions d'experts franco-québécois. Ils ont souhaité ainsi contribuer à poser, dans une perspective pluridisciplinaire, les questions éthiques, sociales, environnementales et juridiques qui sous tendent l'émergence de la nanomédecine, suggérant des pistes innovatrices de réponse.

Book excerpt: Les nanotechnologies avec leurs produits immédiats, les nano-objets, sont en train de bouleverser nos pratiques communicationnelles. La communication est un principe métaphysique : toute chose communique avec toute autre chose. Le monde ne pourrait être sans communiquer. Dans ce communicatio mundi, le statut de l'homme devient ambigu. Progrès, pouvoir, magie, philotechnique et utopie se donnent la main dans une coalition menaçant la liberté de la parole humaine. C'est un processus de syncrétisme communicationnel où il n'y a plus de place pour l'éthique. Paradoxalement, la Tour de Babel communicationnelle risque de devenir notre lieu d'autisme social et culturel. C'est pourquoi, l'étude des notions de "personne" et de "clone humain" fait appel à l'argument de rationalité morale. Cet argument exige une relation cohérente de nécessité entre notre analyse logique, notre compréhension conceptuelle et notre activité cognitive, d'une part et nos décisions et notre agir moral, d'autre part. Quels que soient les types d'éthiques que nous mettons en place, il y aura toujours un principe de rationalité exigeant la connaissance, la clarification, la compréhension, l'explication des notions fondamentales utilisées. Ce principe de raison nécessaire (principium necessarum rationis) est employé dans l'élaboration des règles, dans la prise de décisions et dans l'accomplissement de nos actions. Le but est de préserver la dignité humaine.

Download or read book Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 2 written by Jean-Claude Andre and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inventing isn’t easy! After identifying and presenting the 12 "valleys of death", the real obstacles limiting the transition from an original idea to an innovative one, including the notion of socially responsible research, Knowledge Production Modes between Science and Applications 2 applies the concepts introduced in Volume 1. The book starts off with 3D printing, which has essentially broken through all barriers by offering remarkable advantages over existing mechanical technology. The situation is different for 4D printing and bio-printing. First of all, we need to tackle the complexity inherent in these processes, and move away from disciplinarity to find robust, applicable solutions, despite the obstacles. This is possible in niche areas, but currently, low profitability still limits their general applicability and the willingness of researchers to embrace interdisciplinary convergence....

Download or read book Philosophies of Technologies written by Valerie Charolles and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2024-04-09 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the space of a century, technologies have acquired unprecedented power. The result of these developments is a new form of the world. These transformations test our capacities and generate new crises with multiple issues at stake. Drawing on the lessons of a long history, Philosophies of Technologies examines the continuities and disruptions brought about by the power of contemporary technical systems, without reducing them to the digital age. It draws together 13 authors from different schools of thought and proposes tools that combine productive technology with sustainability, innovation and responsibility. This book wagers that, in the face of the sprawling and ever-changing deployment of technologies, philosophy is able to respond to the changes that offer so many opportunities to shape our future. Today, technologies need a philosophical moment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Die technologischen Entwicklungen unserer Zeit erwecken den Eindruck, dass wir unseren Leib verbessern und seine Grenzen mit ihrer Hilfe überwinden können. Das hohe philosophische Interesse an der leiblichen Verfasstheit des Menschen ist möglicherweise eine Gegenreaktion auf diese Entwicklung. Dieser Band bietet theologische Perspektiven zu diesem Thema. Die Beiträge vertreten ein integratives Verständnis vom Menschen, zu dem Leiblichkeit als unabdingbare Charakteristik gehört. Sie zeigen, wie diese Leiblichkeit die Art und Weise bedingt, wie wir uns wahrnehmen und miteinander in Beziehung treten und wie sich diese Grundbedingung auch auf unsere Beziehung zu Gott auswirkt. Gegen eine einseitige Perspektive der Verbesserung des Körpers stellen die Autoren einen differenzierten Umgang mit dessen Verwundbarkeit. Die Beiträger stellen die Bedeutung der Leiblichkeit für den Vollzug der Liturgie und für ein zeitgemäßes Verständnis von christlicher Gemeinde und diakonischer Arbeit heraus.

Download or read book Industry 4 0 written by Jean-Claude André and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-07-10 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technology opens up extraordinary fields for applications that will deeply change the nature of jobs and trade, the very concept of work and the expectations of user–producers. The “masters of algorithms” have disrupted production and services, and this trend will continue for as long as electric energy and the elements of Industry 4.0 are in continued development. Beyond data control, a power struggle is working its way through the links in the value chain: intermediation, control of resources and command over human and physical networks, as well as partnerships, creativity and the political system. Industry 4.0: Paradoxes and Conflicts examines the need for a serious and technological review, as well as for research and training regarding citizenship and politics. This is a new situation in terms of relationships of competence and authority, which must be the subject of scientific as well as political reflections for the whole social body, which needs to be educated about choices. Throughout the book, the author poses the following question: instead of submitting to choices, would it not be better to exercise foresight?
