초록

복잡성과 불확실성, 예측 불가능성을 주요 특징으로 나타내는 현대사회의 과학기술 위험 이슈에 대응하기 위해서는 과학에 주안점을 두고 단기간에 해결책을 찾으려고 노력하기보다는 구성원 간 사회적 성찰과 정치적 합의에 기반한 과학커뮤니케이션이 활성화되어야 한다. 이 연구의 목적은 사회 패러다임 변화에 따라 과학커뮤니케이션의 개념과 흐름이 어떻게 변화해 왔는지, 과학커뮤니케이션 활성화를 위해서는 무엇이 필요한지 구체적으로 탐색함으로써 위험사회에 부합한 과학커뮤니케이션을 고찰하고 시사점과 함의를 제시하려는 데 있다. 과학지식과 과학에 대한 이해가 공중의 참여와 접목될 때, 그리고 과학만의 권위와 권력에서 벗어나 위험사회의 문제를 해결하기 위한 경험적 지식이 보강될 때, 실질적인 전문성과 효율성을 발휘할 수 있는 과학커뮤니케이션이 구현될 수 있을 것이다.

Science communication based on social reflection and political consensus among social members should be activated rather than focusing on science and trying to find solutions in a short period of time in order to respond to science and technology risk issues in modern society, which are the main characteristics of complexity, uncertainty, and unpredictability. The purpose of this study is to examine science communication suitable for a risk society and to present implications by exploring in detail how the concept and flow of science communication have changed due to changes in the social paradigm and what is needed to revitalize science communication. When scientific knowledge and understanding of science are combined with public participation, and science communication that can demonstrate practical expertise and efficiency can be realized when empirical knowledge to solve problems in a risk society is strengthened away from the authority and power of science alone.
