Social process and development mechanism on biopiracy ——case studies from the perspective of constructivism

摘要: 间隔十年,国外科研机构对我国进行了两起有据可考的基因实验,从最初的“基因采集”引起重视,到“黄金大米”的令人震惊。在全球化过程中,“生物勘测”经常演变成“生物剽窃”,其根本原因在于经济利益的追逐,“地方性知识”被掘取、生产与操控,科学场域中的资本不断聚集。具体原因有两点:其一,认识论上的“知识遮蔽”,研究者以狡猾的手段进行谋取利益的论证,信息的不对等情况出现;其二,修辞学上的身份认同,研究者的头衔和研究机构的声望博得受试者的信任,加重了对信息的遮蔽。此外,伦理审查程序的不严格、伦理审查制度的不完善使得生物勘测由物种多样性采集深入到了人体基因采集,伦理审查的弊端亟待解决。

Abstract: There are two bioprospecting cases that foreign scientific research institutions took Chinese persons for gene experiment, from the initial "gene mining" to pay our attention, to the "golden rice" shocking us after ten years. "Bioprospecting" often evolves into "biopiracy" in the process of globalization, which basic reason lies in the pursuit of economic interests. Local knowledge was explored, produced and controlled in order to accumulate capital in the field of science. The specific reasons are as follows: First is the "agnotology" of epistemology, namely, researchers take captation arguments leading to information asymmetry; Second is identity in rhetoric. The popularity of researchers and the reputation of research institutions win participants' trust, increasing to fold information. What’s more, ethical review program is not strictly and ethical review system is not perfect, which makes bioprospecting from species diversity collecting to human gene mining. The disadvantages of ethical review need to be solved urgently.
