Societal Impact of Nanotechnology
Beyond the toxicity hazards to human health and the environment which are related with first-generation nanomaterials, nanotechnology has wider societal impact and poses broader social challenges. Social scientists have advised that nanotechnology's social issues should be agreed and evaluated not simply as "downstream" risks or impacts. Rather, the challenges should be factored into "upstream" research study and decision-making in the direction to certify technology development that meets social objectives.
