determinants of scientific, technological and industrial trajectories of evolution?

Basically, I think it's asking what scientific, technological and industrial influences might change the way nanotechnology changes and evolves.

Is it some kind of social studies essay?

I'm tempted towards things like warfare being the primary use to which most new technologies are originally applied (from the invention of Bronze, to the domestication of the horse, to gunpowder, to flight, to the splitting of the atom), with other, more positive developments taking second place.

What about public knowledge versus private gain, ie: use of biotechnology, human genome etc. for corporate profit rather than or alongside public benefit.

That's as far as I feel comfortable. Long time since I did sociology.
