• Tempo Mismatch
  • In public policy a regulatory cycle slower than the regulated activity's evolution governs an obsolete configuration.

    This sourceThe 'pacing problem': legal and regulatory oversight slows while technology accelerates, so a regulatory cycle slower than the regulated activity's evolution governs an increasingly obsolete configuration.

    Supported in partVerified against the publisher's abstract

    The book's abstract states the pacing problem — oversight slows while science accelerates, leaving a growing gap — but does not itself say the lagging cycle 'governs an obsolete configuration'.

    “This book addresses the growing gap between the pace of science and technology and the lagging responsiveness of legal and ethical oversight society relies on to govern emerging technologies.”

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
