Putting technoscience to good use
An extensive research work, sponsored by the Fondazione Cariplo, collects various case studies useful to understand the interplay between science and technological devices
Technoscience – or, in other words, “the close interplay between scientific expertise and technological devices”. Technoscience pervades modern industrial and social systems, and often without them fully being aware of this. It would be good, then, to ensure that it is well understood, not only in order to manage it properly but also to simply learn how to best live with it, which is something that concerns every sphere, and especially corporate ones. And also something that can be better understood by reading Co-Creazione e responsabilità nell’innovazione tecnoscientifica dal basso (Co-creation and responsibility in technoscientific innovation from the bottom up), a collection of case studies collaboratively written by Simone Arnaldi, Maura Benegiamo, Stefano Crabu, Paolo Magaudda, Sergio Minniti and Lorenzo Urbano, as part of a 2021 research project financed by Fondazione Cariplo and coordinated by the Polytechnic University of Milan together with the University of Padua and the University of Trieste.
The authors explain that this “anthology” includes “a series of co-creation initiatives concerning the areas of health and care, digital technology and communication, and territory and environmental sustainability.” Different spheres that, nonetheless, share the same feature: co-creation projects that intersect and concretise “the theme of responsibility as a specific approach to the practices and governance of technoscientific innovation.” But there’s more – the authors also stress how the topic of pervasive technology could generate some new “issues related to ethical implications, sustainability or social value in technoscientific innovation.” Issues that need to be tackled with great care and that, in many cases, become integrated into that good production culture that should underlie every good corporate organisation.
This series of studies and investigations concerning the role of technoscience in corporate organisations – and also in social and environmental organisations – supported by the Fondazione Cariplo represents a good guide to better understand how the relationships between research, science and technology are changing. A valuable read for everyone.
