Abstract

This article addresses a key question emerging from this project based at the University of Minnesota: the fundamental capacity of government to engage in “dynamic oversight” of emergent technologies. This conception of oversight requires additional or new types of capacity for government agencies that must arbitrate conflicts and endow any outcomes with necessary democratic legitimacy. Rethinking oversight thus also requires consideration of the fundamental design and organizational capacity of the regulatory regime in the democratic state.

Not everyone is willing to wholly disregard the unknown unknown. One could make a fairly persuasive argument that by creating organizational practices designed to mitigate unexpected events, the literature on HROs directly deals with unknown unknowns (see Weick and Sutcliffe 2007). Moreover, in the more than forty years since Alvin Toffler’s (1970) Future Shock, the futurist movement continues to present works that imagine a society hundred of years in the future.
