摘要
Technological nationalism, already being transformed into policy in some countries, could stymie the globalization of science and technology. Growing out from their development and security demands, countries are attempting to safeguard their national interests in the field of science and technology. This resurgence of technological democracy is related to the strategic value of a technology edge, and the intensification of tendencies toward pan-security and trade protectionism. To alleviate technological nationalism, engagement at multiple levels is required to reduce public concern about technical security and the monopoly of science and technology giants when incorporated into technological governance. To reduce the risk of technological advances at the global level atrophying, countries need to be more proactive about technological nationalism and, instead, seek to establish mutual trust.
