ABSTRACT

We offer an argument for why responsible research and innovation should be in conversation with multispecies studies. We suggest that RRI can learn from multispecies studies to expand definitions of stakeholders and responsibilities, thereby including other creatures in conversations and frameworks where they are currently missing. In addition, the RRI community might benefit from exploring conceptual overlaps between RRI and multispecies studies literatures. For example, concepts germane to RRI – notably, care and relationality – have been particularly well-developed with respect to how they oblige mutually responsive relationships. Consequently, connecting these two areas of theory and practice should nuance discussions about responsibility as an individual versus a collective endeavor and about the relationship between RRI and knowledge production.

摘要

我们提供了一个论点，说明为什么负责任的研究和创新应该与多物种研究进行对话。我们建议 RRI 可以从多物种研究中学习，以扩展利益相关者和责任的定义，从而将其他生物包括在目前缺少的对话和框架中。此外，RRI 社区可能会从探索 RRI 和多物种研究文献之间的概念重叠中受益。例如，与 RRI 密切相关的概念——尤其是关怀和关系——在它们如何促成相互响应的关系方面得到了特别完善的发展。最后，
