Abstract

[Einleitung ...] In einem ersten Schritt ging es darum, die vielfältigen Beziehungen von Technologieentwicklung und Gesellschaft aufzuzeigen und zu verstehen. Es wurde herausgearbeitet, auf welche Weise Forschung und Entwicklung von ihrem gesellschaftlichen Umfeld beeinflusst werden. Methodisch wurde dafür ein explorativer Ansatz gewählt, der es ermöglichte, im bisher wenig konturierten Forschungsfeld systematisch fallvergleichend vorzugehen (vgl. Kapitel 2). Es wurden sogenannte soziokulturelle Faktoren identifiziert, die in Prozessen der Technologieentwicklung förderlich oder hinderlich wirksam werden können. In der Analyse wurden insgesamt vier Kategorien abgeleitet, unter denen sich die soziokulturellen Faktoren fassen lassen (Kapitel 3.1 bis 3.4). Eine erste Kategorie umfasst Faktoren, die die Rolle von Akteuren problematisieren. Diese Faktoren nehmen insbesondere auf die Ausgestaltung von Interaktionen in Innovationsprozessen Bezug. Eine zweite, im Zuge der Analysen identifizierte Kategorie bündelt Faktoren, die sich auf den Einfluss von Werten in der Technologieentwicklung beziehen. Die Wissenschafts- und Technikforschung stellt heraus, dass Werte in den Entwicklungsprozess einfließen und auf diese Weise die Gestalt von Technologien mitbestimmen (Guston 2008, Fisher et al. 2015). Die dritte Kategorie beinhaltet Faktoren, die sich auf kulturell geprägte Prozesse der Interpretation technologischer Entwicklungen beziehen. Solche Interpretationen werden teils strategisch kommuniziert, um bestimmte Sinnzusammenhänge herauszustellen. Schließlich bezieht sich eine vierte Kategorie von Faktoren auf die Arten von Wissen, die im Prozess der Technologieentwicklung eingebunden sind. Die Analysen zeigten, dass gerade Wissen, das in lokalen und regionalen Kontexten entsteht, im untersuchten Feld die Technologieentwicklung beeinflusst. Die identifizierten Faktoren und Kategorien wurden im Rahmen von Workshops mit verschiedenen Stakeholdergruppen diskutiert, um die Forschungsergebnisse und Analysen nachzujustieren. Die Workshopdiskussionen werden im Kapitel 4 dargestellt. In den Kapiteln 5.1 bis 5.4 wird das Zusammenspiel von Faktoren im Hinblick auf ihre Wirkung in Technologieentwicklungsprozessen in Deutschland herausgearbeitet. Das Papier schließt mit einer Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Ergebnisse, die in die weitere Arbeit einfließen werden.
