Experts+and+Expertise

Foundational STS-based studies of expertise (Jasanoff 1990; Fischer 1990); the relationship between scientific authority and other forms of expertise (Jasanoff 1995; Wynne 1996; Fischer 2000; Collins and Evans 2007; Ottinger and Cohen (eds.) 2011); the process of inclusion and exclusion in the governance of expert authority (Reardon 2005; Maasen and Weingard (eds.) 2005; Epstein 2007; Fischer 2009; Brown and Mark 2009); and expert assessments of risk (Allen 2003; Macfarlane 2003; Jasanoff 2005; Brown 2007), including the assessment of risk under emergent conditions and conditions of considerable uncertainty (Lindblom and Woodhouse 1993; Hisschemöller, Hoppe, Dunn, and Ravetz (eds.) 2006) are also germane to an understanding of Fukushima.
