El bé i el mal dels àtoms i molècules. Religió i nanotecnologia

Abstract

Right and Wrong for Atoms and Molecules: Religion and Nanotechnology.
There is a solid body of literature on ethical aspects of nanotechnology, but it comes almost entirely in the secular voices of professional ethicists. Meanwhile, recent studies show that religious beliefs are likely to be powerful determinants of lay public reactions to nanotechnology. There have been
few explicitly religious contributions to ethical issues in nanotechnology, but it is still important to understand the current status of religiously inspired reactions, and to ask some questions about religious reactions to nanotechnology in the future.
