“…Many studies on the media representations of nanotechnology have been conducted in many countries during the past 10 years. Most studies covered the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom (Allan, Anderson, & Petersen, 2010; Anderson et al, 2005; Faber, MacKinnon, & Petroccine, 2005; Fitzgerald & Rubin, 2010; Friedman & Egolf, 2005; Gorss & Lewenstein, 2005; Laing, 2005; Stephens, 2005; Weaver, Lively, & Bimber, 2009; Wilkinson, Allan, Anderson, & Petersen, 2007), Germany (Donk, Metag, Kohring, & Marcinkowski, 2012; Grobe, Eberhard, & Hutterli, 2005; Zimmer, Hertel, & Böl, 2008), Denmark (Kjærgaard, 2008), The Netherlands (Te Kulve, 2006), Italy (Arnaldi, 2008), Norway (Kjølberg, 2009), Slovenia (Groboljsek & Mali, 2012), and Poland (Lemańczyk, 2012). Additionally, Dudo, Choi, and Scheufele (2010) conducted a study of 21 U.S. newspapers focusing on nano-food only.…”

This study is the first attempt to study media representations of nanotechnology in the Islamic Republic of Iran. Content analysis has been used to investigate the potential risks and benefits of nanotechnology, centering on the dominating frames, themes, actors, and tone and on the geographical focus of the articles published in the Iranian daily press between 2004 and 2009. The results will offer a new perspective to the ongoing discussion on the social aspects of nanotechnology, looking at it through the lens of a different culture, religion, language, and sociopolitical system.

Many technologies are fast-growing drivers of innovation and as such have the potential for major transformations of people’s lives. Related to that, technologies and particularly the development of new technologies (also called emerging technologies) call for a variety of actors who try to make themselves heard in the public sphere. Scientists, economic actors, politicians, regulators, and ordinary citizens try to have a voice in the public discussion about the development, implementation, and specific applications of technologies—thus, they strive to reach the audience through media coverage.
