초록

이 글은 과학기술학의 맥락에서 사회기술시스템 전이에 관한 여러 이론적 측면을 다루고 있다. 사회기술시스템 전이 관점은 특히 지속가능한 개발을 위한 과학기술 혁신정책 연구 분야에서 각광받고 있는데, 그것의 규범적 성격은 연구자 뿐 아니라 과학기술 자체의 실천적 역할을 강조하는 STS 전통으로부터 큰 영향을 받았다. 이 글에서는 사회기술시스템 관점의 이론적 발전과정을 추적하고, 주요한 이론적 요소들인 시스템 전이의 환경, 동인, 그리고 동학에 대해 이전의 여러 이론들과 연결하여 논한다. 결언부에서는 전략적 니치관리론(SNM)으로 대표되는, 전이 관리를 위한 과학기술 혁신정책의 역할을 강조하였다.

This paper presents theoretical discussions on socio-techical system transition, by shedding light on the STS context. With a rising attention paid by STI policy researchers, the socio-technical system perspective seems particularly promising in applying to the pursuit for the sustainable development. The normative strand in STI policy research has been strongly influenced by the STS tradition that emphasizes active and participatory roles not only of academian but also of science and technology. Throughout reviewing the development of the socio-technical system perspective, its theoretical components of environment, drivers and dynamics are discussed, often being linked to older perspectives. STI policy involves in socio-technical transition in a manner of transition management and governance, which is the final part of this paper.
