Deliberations on the Unknown, the Unsensed, and the Unsayable?

Public Protests and the Development of Third-Generation Mobile Phones in Sweden

Linda Soneryd

Stockholm Centre for Organizational Research

This article explores processes of articulation in the controversies over third-generation mobile phone transmitters and the interrelated phenomenon of "electrosensitivity." The argument is that the search to fix public image and public concerns tends to alienate the public from technology discussions. An alternative political epistemology of articulations is suggested to explore the dynamics among prereflexive motives, public engagement, and institutional requirements for public deliberations.

Key Words: deliberation • regulation • public protest • 3G • electrosensitivity
