This grant provides travel support for participants in the third of a series of annual workshops on Science and Democracy, to be held in Cambridge, Massachusetts at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government. The workshop's primary goals are to (1) improve scholarship in science and technology studies (S&TS) on science and democracy, and (2) train younger S&TS scholars to participate more effectively in decision processes and public affairs. The workshop advances these objectives by (a) promoting scholarship on the democratic steering, conduct, and uses of science and technology; (b) improving the quality and dissemination of participants' research; (c) connecting the normative and political analysis of science and technology more closely to work in adjacent disciplines; (d) communicating perspectives from S&TS to policy actors and contributing to social problem-solving; and (e) creating an international network of scholars and practitioners interested in the democratic governance of science and technology. The workshop will focus around three core themes of institutions, citizenship and participation, and representation and communication and provide opportunities for critical intellectual exchange, synthesis, and cross-disciplinary contact. The workshop's broader impacts include the training of young professionals, fostering national and international scientific communication, and building an improved knowledge base for public policy. Young scholars participating in the workshop will benefit from networking opportunities, scrutiny of methodological and theoretical issues, and engagement with senior scholars, scientists, and policy practitioners. The workshop will highlight policy issues of importance to the United States and the global community and promote dialogue among an interdisciplinary, worldwide network of scholars. The Society for Social Studies of Science (4S), an international and interdisciplinary society, will co-sponsor the workshop. Participants will be recruited from a diverse array of professional communities, including the European Association for Studies of Science and Technology, the American Political Science Association, History of Science Society, and Society for History of Technology, among others. A website will publicize the workshop and provide information about its outcomes. Important results will be disseminated through 4S journals and newsletters and in other venues as appropriate.

这项赠款为参加第三届科学与民主年度研讨会的与会者提供旅费，该研讨会将在马萨诸塞州剑桥市哈佛大学约翰·F·肯尼迪政府学院。该讲习班的主要目标是（1）提高科学和民主的科学和技术研究（S TS）的奖学金，（2）培训年轻的S TS学者更有效地参与决策过程和公共事务。 讲习班通过以下方式推进这些目标：（a）促进关于科学技术的民主指导、行为和使用的学术研究;（B）提高参与者研究的质量和传播;（c）将科学技术的规范性和政治性分析与相邻学科的工作更密切地联系起来;（d）&向政策行为者传达科学技术服务的观点，并为解决社会问题作出贡献;以及（e）建立一个对科学和技术的民主管理感兴趣的学者和实践者的国际网络。 研讨会将围绕三个核心主题，即机构、公民身份和参与、代表性和沟通，并为关键的知识交流、综合和跨学科接触提供机会。 讲习班的广泛影响包括培训青年专业人员，促进国家和国际科学交流，以及为公共政策建立更好的知识库。 参加研讨会的年轻学者将受益于网络机会，方法和理论问题的审查，以及与资深学者，科学家和政策实践者的接触。 该研讨会将突出对美国和全球社会具有重要意义的政策问题，并促进跨学科的全球学者网络之间的对话。科学社会研究协会（4S），一个国际性的跨学科协会，将共同主办这次研讨会。 参与者将从不同的专业团体招募，包括欧洲科学技术研究协会，美国政治学协会，科学史学会和技术史学会等。 一个网站将宣传讲习班并提供有关其成果的信息。 重要成果将通过4S期刊和通讯以及其他适当的渠道传播。
