论风险决策中专家作用的局限及克服

专家在风险决策中具有不可替代的作用,但也存在着一定的局限,主要包括客观方面和主观方面。就客观方面而言,专家知识总是存在一定的不足;就主观方面而言,专家也会因为利益关系而影响其公正性。因此,需要通过民主审议对专家的作用进行相应的限制。在运用专家进行决策时,行政机关应完善专家的构成,充分进行信息公开,广泛开展公众参与,真诚进行风险沟通。

On the limitation and restriction of experts role in risk decision-making

An expert plays irreplaceable role in risk decision-making but has certain limitation in objective perspective and subjective perspective,the expert’s knowledge is limited in objective perspective and the expert’s viewpoint affected by his interests is not equitable in subjective perspective,thus,the role of the expert should be restricted correspondingly through democratic discussion.When the expert is used to make decision,administrative departments should perfect the composition of the experts,sufficiently open the information,extensively invite masses to participate in and honestly make communication about the risk.
