| Abstract
| - Le Parlement constitue un espace privilégié pour analyser le déploiement des controverses sociotechniques?: non parce qu’il aurait la faculté de les résoudre, notamment via l’OPECST, mais parce qu’il offre de multiples occasions et modalités d’expression et de traitement de ces controverses en son sein. Espace hétérogène et poreux, il participe d’une nouvelle gouvernance des risques, plus soucieuse de leur stabilisation que de leur réduction définitive.
- The French Parliament offers an ideal place to analyze the unfolding of sociotechnical controversies. Not that it has any capacity to actually resolve these, including its office of science and technology ; but rather because it offers a plurality of opportunities for controversies to play out within its two chambers. As a heterogeneous and porous institution, it takes part in a newly formed risk governance that aims to manage rather than definitely solve risk issues.
