Lewis, William R. "Reframing strategic inertia : the politics of innovation and the case of GM biotechnology." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/20061/.

Full text
Abstract:
In a broad sense this thesis concerns the politics (and ethics) of strategic management, organisational psychology, organisational narratives, knowledge management and conditions of innovation. More specifically, this is research into the dimension of politics and the legitimacy of power relations within the synchronization of time and space in social organisations, typically as part of the design and implementation of strategy, in context of organisational definitions of innovation and contestations of 'the new'. With a conceptual archaeology, the thesis contends that strategy research focuse

This is the second volume of a dissertation dealing with industrial marketing change processes. The empirical part of the dissertation describes a set of marketing organization changes in Pharmacia Biotech. In 1959 Pharmacia AB launched a completely new separation product for biochemical separation and entered a period of steady growth and development in a completely new business area. By the second half of the 1980s, Pharmacia Biotech AB, subsidiary of the multinational pharmaceutical corporation Pharmacia, had become one of the world's major suppliers of biotech products and services.

Abstract:
Comment expliquer la présence invasive des documents encadrant la circulation du bioart et leur influence sur la constitution, le fonctionnement et la réception des œuvres, alors que ce courant partage avec les arts vivants ou le body art une dimension live, incarnée et performative qui impliquerait une réception directe et non médiate de la part de l'audience ? Car si la documentation semble servir à compenser la rareté des expositions de bioart en assurant aux œuvres une visibilité médiatique, elle paraît aussi nécessaire sur leurs lieux d'accrochage pour garantir l'efficacité de leur récept

Full text
Abstract:
<p>This thesis examines the Swedish political response to the challenges posed by gene technology, seen through the prism of governmental commissions. It discerns and analyses continuities and changes in the Swedish political conception of gene technology, over the course of two decades, 1980–2000. This is done by thematically following ideas of “risks” and “ethics” as they are represented in the inner workings and reception of three governmental commissions. The Gene-Ethics Commission (1981–1984), the Gene Technology Commission (1990–1992) and the Biotechnology Commission (1997–2000) form the

The aim of the dissertation is to examine the mechanisms at work when networks are formed and risk constructions made as bodies encounter frontline technology within the food sector. The concept of technoscience TS, is the link uniting the escalating technology of risk society, rebellious nature and the insidious threats of substances absorbed straight into the metabolism of our bodies through the food that we eat. The TS viewpoint is complemented by a short overview of Beck’s theory about the risk society, in order to explain how research creates risks rather than removing them. The four case

Abstract:
Chromatin packages eukaryotic genomes via a hierarchical series of folding steps, encrypting multiple layers of epigenetic information, which are capable of regulating nuclear transactions in response to complex signals in environment. Besides the 1-dimensinal chromatin landscape such as nucleosome positioning and histone modifications, little is known about the secondary chromatin structures and their functional consequences related to transcriptional regulation and DNA replication.

Derived from and inspired by the adaptive immune system of bacteria, CRISPR has gone from basic biology knowledge to a revolutionizing biotechnological tool, applicable in many research areas such as medicine, industry and agriculture. The full mechanism of CRISPR-Cas9 was first published in 2012 and various CRISPR-Cas systems have already passed the first stages of clinical trials as new gene therapies. The immense research has resulted in continuously growing knowledge of CRISPR systems and the technique seems to have the potential to greatly impact all life on our planet. Therefore, this li

Abstract:
<p>In the context of today's global mobility, information, bodies and goods are circulating across the globe, and even further into outer space. However, we face a paradox: the more we move, the more we become sedentary. The modes of transportation that enable our global mobility are working against us, insidiously dwindling our psycho-physical mobility. Globalization is thus not the world becoming bigger (or too big), but the world becoming immobile. Taking the body as the central non-place of political space, Architectures of Aliveness: Building Beyond Gravity interrogates the possibility of
