‘There is no scientific basis to the concept of humanity’


Now available for downloading is the first report of the European Union Sixth Framework Project on the Knowledge Politics of Nano-, Bio-, Info- and Cogno- Sciences and Technologies.

The report is entitled ‘Research trajectories and institutional settings of new converging technologies’. It is written by Steve Fuller and includes annexes from the European partners on the project who describe the state of play in their respective countries.
