For example, the idea of an impasse in the development of genetically modified food technologies, coupled with statements about the need to avoid such conflict in the development of nanotechnology. The article presents clusters of folk theories surrounding nanotechnology, and uses them to understand the exaggerated concern about public reactions to nanotechnology and how these folk theories are used by Nanotechnologists to position the future of nanotechnology and their own role in it.  </style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Journal Article</style></work-type></record></records></xml>
