中文简介:
2011年1月19日,克莱蒙特·麦肯纳教授威廉·阿舍尔(William Ascher),知识与环境政策部(Quot;Knowledge and Environmental Policy)举办了一次可持续性研讨会。有时,现有知识在技术上是适当的,涵盖了决策者应考虑的广泛考虑因素,但很容易确定在相关知识的产生、传播和使用方面的严重限制。有些形式的知识和知识来源比其他形式的知识享有不适当的特权,从而缩小了决策者应考虑的范围,例如实用知识和表达公众偏好。对更多知识的追求可能会使采取必要行动的目光短浅的拖延合理化。通过观察这三个过程如何暴露在技术限制和竞争中,我们可以了解为什么以及如何在环境政策过程中使用和滥用知识。更多的知识可以解决政策争端,消除对政治的需要,而丑陋的政治破坏了知识对环境政策制定的贡献,忽视了政治作为对社会目标的争论所必须发挥的关键作用。知识政策关系中对政治必然性的排斥推动了政治的地下化,使人们更难看到价值立场伪装成纯粹的技术性。基于此诊断,可以制定许多改进知识流程的建议。/p p ;/p
课程简介: pSustainability Seminar delivered on January 19, 2011 by Claremont McKenna Professor William Ascher, "Knowledge and Environmental Policy.״/p pEnvironmental policymakers rely on a prodigious amount of knowledge from a wide variety of sources. Sometimes available knowledge is technically appropriate and covers the broad range of considerations that policymakers ought to take into account, yet it is easy to identify serious limitations in the generation, transmission, and use of relevant knowledge. Some forms and sources of knowledge are inappropriately privileged over others, narrowing the range of considerations that policymakers ought to take into account, such as practical knowledge and the expression of public preferences. The quest for more knowledge may rationalize shortsighted delays in taking necessary actions. By looking at how these three processes are exposed to both technical limitations and contestation, we can learn why and how knowledge is used and abused in the environmental policy process. The views that more knowledge resolves policy disputes, obviating the need for politics, and that "ugly politics" undermines the contributions of knowledge to environmental policymaking, neglect the crucial role that politics, as contestation over societal goals, has to play. The rejection of the inevitability of politics in the knowledge-policy relationship drives the politics underground, making it more difficult to see where value positions are masquerading as purely technical. Based on this diagnosis, many recommendations for improving the knowledge processes can be devised./pp /p
