Nanoscale technologies are surrounded by both hype and fear. Optimists suggest they are desperately needed to solve problems of terrorism, global warming, clean water, land degradation and public health. Pessimists fear the loss of privacy and autonomy, "grey goo" and weapons of mass destruction, and unforeseen environmental and health risks. Concern over fair distribution of the costs and benefits of nanotechnology is also rising.Introduced in 2007, NanoEthics: Ethics for Technologies that Converge at the Nanoscale provides a needed forum for informed discussion of ethical and social concerns related to nanotechnology, and a counterbalance to fragmented popular discussion.While the central focus of the journal is on ethical issues, discussion extends to the physical, biological and social sciences and the law. NanoEthics provides a philosophically and scientifically rigorous examination of ethical and societal considerations and policy concerns raised by nanotechnology.
纳米技术被炒作和恐惧包围着。乐观主义者表示,他们迫切需要解决恐怖主义、全球变暖、清洁水、土地退化和公共卫生等问题。悲观主义者担心失去隐私和自主,“灰色粘液”和大规模杀伤性武器,以及不可预见的环境和健康风险。对纳米技术成本和效益的公平分配的担忧也在上升。2007年推出的《纳米伦理学:在纳米尺度上融合的技术伦理学》提供了一个必要的论坛,用于就与纳米技术有关的伦理和社会问题进行知情讨论,并与分散的大众讨论相抗衡。虽然该杂志的中心焦点是伦理问题,但讨论范围扩大到了物理、生物和社会科学以及法律。纳米伦理学从哲学和科学角度对纳米技术提出的伦理和社会考虑以及政策问题进行了严格的审查。
