Nanoscience and Nanotechnology: Assessing the Nature of Innovation in These Fields

Michael D. Mehta

University of Saskatchewan

Sociologists of science and others have long been interested in how advances in science come about, and their potential social and economic impacts. Developments in nanoscience and nanotechnology will provide social scientists with a unique opportunity to explore how scientific activities form de novo. Additionally, scientists will have the opportunity to examine the factors that drive science and technology in certain directions by considering how different models of innovation may explain how the topography of the knowledge-based economy is being shaped by radically new approaches to science.
