Abstract:

This chapter explores risk and innovation in the context of revolutionary technologies of synthetic biology, gene drives and CRISPR. It highlights laws inability to keep pace with innovation in technology and associated risk; how bias towards ‘inherited regulatory regimes’ stifles laws resilience, thus exposing the limits of laws transformative potential.
