Tiivistelmä: | By examining the US federal Aviation Administration's (here as: FAA) type certification process, this study examines the dilemmas posed by 'expertise' in high-technology regulation. FAA delegates a large amount of this work to the manufacturers and it is discussed why they do this. It is suggested, that regulators of high technologies face an inevitable barrier when making technological assessments and this forces them to delegate to people with more tacit knowledge, hence to 'regulate' at a distance by evaluating trust rather than technology. Some implications of this and its relation to author's theories of regulation are unraveled. |
