i ies (PH) and digi al humani ies (DH) wi h he ci izen humani ies.
The e m ‘ci izen humani ies’ has come o be used o e e o “ci i-
zen ‘science’ in he humani ies” (Heinisch e al. o hcoming). Since i
is de i ed om he no ion o ‘ci izen science’, i is impo an o shed

ci izen humani ies.
1.1 Ci izen Science
Se e al de ini ions o ci izen science (CS) ha e e ol ed. Acco ding o
he Whi e Pape on Ci izen Science o Eu ope, ci izen science is ba-
sically unde s ood o mean he “gene al public engagemen in scien-
i ic esea ch ac i i ies when ci izens ac i ely con ibu e o science
ei he wi h hei in ellec ual e o o su ounding knowledge o wi h
hei ools and esou ces” (Se ano Sanz e al. 2014, 8). In e es ing-
ly, “public engagemen ” is men ioned in he Whi e Pape ’s de ini ion,
which is also one o he pilla s o esponsible esea ch and inno a-
ion, which will be discussed la e .
In o he wo ds, CS can also be desc ibed as science done by peo-
ple (Sil e own 2009, 470), i.e. non-p o essional academics engage
in scien i ic in es iga ions and ask ques ions, collec o analyse da a
o in e p e esul s (Mille -Rushing e al. 2020, 17). This means ha
being a olun ee in a medical ial o esponding o a social science
su ey do no quali y as CS (Haklay 2013, 2).
CS anges om “la ge-scale da a collec ion” o “engaging public
pe spec i es and knowledges in science discou se and policy mak-
ing” (Shi k e al. 2012, 26). Thus, he unde s anding o CS is a he
b oad, anging om c owdsou cing o pa icipa o y ac ion esea ch.
While he e m ‘ci izen science’ is a he new, he unde lying con-
cep is old. Membe s o he public wi hou p o essional aining in
he ield o esea ch ha e been con ibu ing o science o cen u ies.
Ei he membe s o he public ca ied ou academic in es iga ions

Gay 2019). Fo cen u ies, ci izens ha e made obse a ions and e-
co ds, o example o lo a and auna, phenology, wea he o as on-
omy (Mille -Rushing, P imack, Bonney 2012, 285).

The eme gence o CS was shaped by wo s ands o CS: Democ a-
isa ion o science (I win 1995) and public pa icipa ion in scien i ic
esea ch (Bonney e al. 2009). The i s s and add esses he ela ion-
ships be ween ci izens and science and he esponsibili y o science
owa ds socie y. Thus, i has a clea ela ion o esponsible esea ch
and inno a ion and se ice o socie y based on wo assump ions: “a
science which assis s he needs and conce ns o ci izens” and “a o m
o science de eloped and enac ed by ci izens hemsel es” (I win 1995,
xi). The second s and subsumes di e en models o public pa ici-
pa ion in scien i ic esea ch unde h ee ca ego ies acco ding o he
deg ee o public in ol emen and he con ol pa icipan s can exe -
cise in di e en s eps o he esea ch p ocess (Bonney e al. 2009, 11).
CS has ecen ly been uelled by echnological de elopmen s, en-
ailing new means o communica ion, collabo a ion and da a. Schol-
a s ask he public o suppo hem in hei esea ch, beyond being
he me e subjec o in es iga ion.
Di e en easons o he cu en popula i y o CS ha e been p o-

no be conside ed synonyms.
Fo example, pa icipa o y esea ch, which is o en associa ed

The la e o m o he ci izen humani ies is also e e ed o as
