摘要

近年來奈米科技研發應用興起，許多革命性創新進展，於普遍產業領域上造成許多改變，也爲產業界帶來許多創新商機。奈米技術雖然帶來許多產業革新，相對的也對於人類社會健康之健康及環境生態系統之危害，引發許多潛在風險疑慮。就產業發展秩序及維護全民福祉而言，必須訂定有國家法律規範制度，才有明確規範可遵循；然而，奈米新興產業才剛萌芽，發展態勢及產業所須秩序尚有未明，一開始就加以強制限制規範，可能會有箝制未來發展疑慮，而所研擬強制規範，也有可能跟隨不上產業發展腳步。所以實務上許多「產業自律規範」於是適時出現，成爲此階段適宜的解決方案。本文特別彙整蒐集美國實務發展，並選定導入奈米責任保險機制(Liability Insurance)以及推動奈米產業自願性計畫(Voluntary Reporting Program)等二大重要議題，進行相關研究分析，並做出歸納綜合建議意見，期待能對於我國政府機關法制政策規劃，提供參考借鏡，以利奠定相關法制政策發展環境。

In recent years the rise of nanotechnology research and development to make use of the progress of many revolutionary innovations in many industries. While the nanotechnology industry for innovation and business opportunities brought about, but also for the relative health of human society and the environment of health system hazards, lead to many doubts about the potential risks. Order to lay the industrial operation and maintenance of the people's welfare level, must be planning to develop the national system of legal norms. However, many emerging technologies and industries just sprouting, and industrial developments in order to be are not clear, if the start to be a peremptory norm of limitations may restrict the future development. But it should take into account the well-being of the people, so many ”industry self-regulation” appears timely, appropriate to this stage has become the solution. U.S. nanotechnology industry, has invested many resources to promote. In this paper, in particular the United States of the entire collection of practical development and selection mechanism into nano-liability insurance, and the promotion of Voluntary Reporting Program, related research and analysis, and make summarized the views of a comprehensive proposal.
