Innovation in Modernity: An Investigation into the Challenge of Biotechnology PDF Print E-mail
Written by Kemal Ahson   
Monday, 17 November 2008

Biotechnology is of strategic importance to modern capitalist societies. But it is currently in a controversial and transitory phase of development. The current concern with food security and the increase in food prices has brought the issue of biotechnology to the fore. For instance, will biotechnology provide us with real and tangible solutions to food production and agriculture? This book examines contemporary innovation in agro-food biotechnology. It identifies the products and processes associated with agro-food biotechnology, and the means by which they come about. In particular, it investigates the connections and interactions between various cultural, economic, political, scientific, social and technological elements in biotechnological innovation, some of the features of where and how innovation takes place, and the key actors and institutions that influence these arrangements and interactions. It treats innovation in agro-food biotechnology as a phenomenon embedded in broader human-technology relations, and develops a multi-dimensional approach to the understanding of biotechnological innovation.
