Product Description
The chapters in this book are based on papers prepared for the international workshop on Constructive Technology Assessment, held at the University of Twente, Enschede, The Netherlands, 20-22 September 1991. Authors and editors have profited from the discussion and the contributions of participants in the workshop, which gathered eminent scholars in economics of technical change, history and sociology of science and technology, technology assessment, as well as a small number of interested policy-makers. The financial support of the Netherlands Organization for Technology Assessment (NOTA, now The Rathenau Institute), the Dutch ministry of Economic Affairs and the Illinois Institute of Technology's ERIF programme is acknowledged.
