Public hearing as a tool for the co-production of science and society

Tereza Stöckelová a Michal Trčka prepared a summary of the review study Public hearing as a tool for the co-production of science and society.

The summary of the literature review “Public Hearing as a Tool for the Co-production of Science and Society” explores the evolution of ideas, realities and forms of public participation in decision-making about science and new technologies in the European Union (EU) from the late 1990s to the present. The term “co-production of science and society” in the document’s title refers to the notion of co-production (Jasanoff, 2004), which offers a framework for understanding how science and society are inherently entangled and simultaneously (re)constituted.
