Acknowledgments
Knowledge is produced in networks. First of all, I am much obliged to Julian Ber-
ger for welcoming me in his working environment. I am especially grateful to
Brian Wynne for supervising me during the production of the original paper con-
cerning this case. Furthermore I thank my PhD supervisor Christoph Lau for en-
couraging me to continue to work on the case and the research fellows of the Insti-
tute for Advanced Studies on Science, Technology and Society (IAS-STS) as well
as the participants of the workshop Environmental Management: More of the
Same or Time for Change? - Confronting the Manageability Paradigm (at Bran-
denburg University of Technology, January, 11-13, 2008) for providing feedback
to earlier versions of this paper. Specifically, Helen Jackson, Torsten Wöllmann,
Franz Martin Krause and Hannah Strauss provided me with valuable comments.
