Civic Science
Civic science is built on the premise that many development issues are so complex that they require careful interdisciplinary assessment of current conditions, future trends, and possible solutions, and that stakeholders are well placed to advise on actions which incorporate community preferences and goals. The author outlines how civic science principles work in three contexts: Project ARIDAS (a plan for sustainable development in the semiarid r…

The Scientific State: A Theory with Hypotheses
Our purpose in this article is to advance a theory to explain changes in the governance of modern industrial states. We believe that the traditional mode of government-what we term the administrative state-is being gradually replaced by a newer mode based on science-the scientific state.' In this article we also present some hypotheses derivable from the theory which can guide research aimed at testing the theory. Science and technology change al…
Managing Comprehensive Rule Making: EPA's Plan for Integrated Environmental Management
Environmental policy suffers from an internal contradiction. On the theoretical level it is widely agreed that policy must take into account interactions between different parts of the environment. But in practice, legislation and rule making are dominated by media-specific strategies that give scant attention to the transfer of pollutants among media. The difficulties with controlling toxic substances have demonstrated the limits of controlling …

Regulation and Science
Regulation is a government's means for telling the private sector (and sometimes itself) how not to do business. As a policy instrument it is widely criticized as cumbersome, slow, inefficient, and costly; nevertheless, it holds promise for the resolution of complex policy issues associated with increased social dependence on science and technology. First, because of a unique division of labor among the three branches of the U.S. government, regu…

The kinds of solutions (basically moralist and nonprogrammatic ) which are recommended in this volume (the right of all to share in social resources, the right to leisure time, the right to education, the right to employment, the right to job retraining and relocation) are projected from assumptions that do not comprehend the magnitude of the problems discussed. There are other kinds of solutio…
