科林格里奇困境是技术评估中一个十分著名的难题。首先分析了它本身包含的三个维度,即时间维度、知识维度和权力维度,并指出它的理论基础其实就是传统实证主义科技观。接着借助于20世纪80年代从STS中发展出来并从根本上颠覆传统实证主义科技观的技科学视角,对它的三个维度进行重新解释与修正,最后消解了这个困境,这能为我国技术评估工作带来一些有益的新启示。
Collingridge' s Dilemma is a very famous problem in technology assessment. This paper first analyzes three dimensions of it : time, knowledge and power, and points out that the theory base of the dilemma is the traditional positivism view of science and technol- ogy. Then reexplains and modifies the meanings of its three dimensions from the technoscience perspective which developed from STS in the 1980s and overturned the traditional positivism view of science and technology. Such a technoscience perspective totally solves the dilemma and brings some new and helpful inspirations to our technology assessment work.
