Abstract: Some scholars consider that broadening the composition of experts committees to various stakeholders allows the setting-up of shared states of knowledge and provides a useful step for choosing and enforcing in better conditions prevention strategies that address collective risks that are still potential, uncertain and controversial. On the basis of the model of Contestable management, the paper considers the assumption that agents involved in social protest and do have a project to transform society behave strategically when they manage their commitment to collective expertise. One of the aims considered is that they search to reach a social state in which social protest against certain activities, technologies and products is no longer dependent on scientific methods of setting facts, finding evidence and produce assessments. Such strategies have to be taken into account by other agents to determine their own participation to collective expertise and have implications for the best organization of scientific expertise.
