Resumen:
In a global knowledge economy, as political decision makers seek scientific advice to analyze the risks and benefits of new technological developments (Moore et al., 2011), the democratic capacity of citizens to intervene in the regulation of new technologies is increasingly reduced. In this context, new forms of grassroots participation in the arena of regulatory science (Jasanoff, 1990) and novel relationships between scientists and social movements (SM) are emerging. In this paper I analyze the efforts made by SMs to promote pesticide regulation and to advocate for environmentally sustainable agriculture in Argentina.
