• Anne Conway og revitaliseringen av naturen: Conways miljøetikk som et alternativ til Aristoteles og Spinoza 

      Nilsen, Fredrik; Antonsen, Trine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-06-29)
      I den økofeministiske klassikeren The Death of Nature: Women, Ecology and the Scientific Revolution (1980) fremhever Carolyn Merchant måten Anne Conway (1631–1679) kritiserer det dominerende mekanistiske natursynet ved å hevde at alt i naturen er fylt med liv. For i Conways verk Principles of the most Ancient and Modern Philosophy (1690) finner vi et natursyn hvor «den anorganiske naturen», slik ...
    • Public Consultation on Proposed Revisions to Norway's Gene Technology Act: An Analysis of the Consultation Framing, Stakeholder Concerns, and the Integration of Non-Safety Considerations 

      Kjeldaas, Sigfrid; Antonsen, Trine; Hartley, Sarah; Myhr, Anne Ingeborg (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-07-08)
      In Norway, genetically modified organisms (GMOs) are regulated through the Gene Technology Act of 1993, which has received international attention for its inclusion of non-safety considerations. In 2017, the Norwegian Biotechnology Advisory Board triggered a process to revise the Act that included a public consultation and resulted in the “Proposal for relaxation.” Using poststructuralist discourse ...
    • Teknologi, natur og litteratur: Deiktisk diskurs hos Vetlesen og Borgmann 

      Lundestad, Erik; Antonsen, Trine (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2019-10-15)
      I <i>The Denial of Nature</i> (2015) argumenterer Arne Johan Vetlesen for at litteratur og poesi, av den typen den amerikanske filosofen Albert Borgmann karakteriserer som deiktisk diskurs, fremviser naturens iboende verdi. Ifølge Vetlesen tilbyr deiktisk diskurs en pre-teoretisk tilnærming til naturen som den filosofiske debatten siden kan baseres på. Artikkelen viser at selv om både Vetlesen og ...
    • With great power comes great responsibility: why ‘safe enough’ is not good enough in debates on new gene technologies 

      Kjeldaas, Sigfrid; Dassler, Tim; Antonsen, Trine; Wikmark, Odd Gunnar; Myhr, Anne Ingeborg (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-25)
      New genomic techniques (NGTs) are powerful technologies with the potential to change how we relate to our food, food producers, and natural environment. Their use may afect the practices and values our societies are built on. Like many countries, the EU is currently revisiting its GMO legislation to accommodate the emergence of NGTs. We argue that assessing such technologies according to whether ...
