This is Not a Boundary Object: Reflections on the Origin of a Concept
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 35 Số 5 - Trang 601-617 - 2010
Susan Leigh Star
There are three components to boundary objects as outlined in the original 1989 article. Interpretive flexibility, the structure of informatic and work process needs and arrangements, and, finally, the dynamic between ill-structured and more tailored uses of the objects. Much of the use of the concept has concentrated on the aspect of interpretive flexibility and has often mistaken or con...... hiện toàn bộ
Green Chemistry as Social Movement?
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 30 Số 2 - Trang 199-222 - 2005
Edward J. Woodhouse, Steve Breyman
Are there circumstances under which scientists and engineers doing their ordinary jobs can be thought of as participants in a social movement? The technoscientists analyzed in this article are at the forefront of a new way of doing chemistry; they are attempting to redesign chemical products and synthesis pathways to significantly reduce health effects and environmental damage from indust...... hiện toàn bộ
Identifying the Science-Technology Interface: Matching Patent Data to a Bibliometric Model
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 14 Số 1 - Trang 50-77 - 1989
H. Roberts Coward, Jane Franklin
The Social Construction of Technology: Structural Considerations
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 27 Số 1 - Trang 28-52 - 2002
Hans Klein, Daniel Lee Kleinman
Although scholarship in the social construction of technology (SCOT) has contributed much to illuminating technological development, most work using this theoretical approach is committed to an agency-centered approach. SCOT scholars have made only limited contributions to illustrating the influence of social structures. In this article, the authors argue for the importance of structural ...... hiện toàn bộ
Is Science a Public Good? Fifth Mullins Lecture, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, 23 March 1993
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 19 Số 4 - Trang 395-424 - 1994
Michel Callon
Should governments accept the principle of devoting a proportion of their resources to funding basic research? From the standpoint of economics, science should be considered as a public good and for that reason it should be protected from market forces. This article tries to show that this result can only be maintained at the price of abandoning arguments traditionally deployed by economis...... hiện toàn bộ
Making Images/Making Bodies: Visibilizing and Disciplining through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 30 Số 2 - Trang 291-316 - 2005
Amit Prasad
This article analyzes how the medical gaze made possible by MRI operates in radiological laboratories. It argues that although computer-assisted medical imaging technologies such as MRI shift radiological analysis to the realm of cyborg visuality, radiological analysis continues to depend on visualization produced by other technologies and diagnostic inputs. In the radiological laboratory...... hiện toàn bộ
“Opening Up” and “Closing Down”
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 33 Số 2 - Trang 262-294 - 2008
Andy Stirling
Discursive deference in the governance of science and technology is rebalancing from expert analysis toward participatory deliberation. Linear, scientistic conceptions of innovation are giving ground to more plural, socially situated understandings. Yet, growing recognition of social agency in technology choice is countered by persistently deterministic notions of technological progress. ...... hiện toàn bộ
Algorithms, Governance, and Governmentality
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 41 Số 1 - Trang 17-49 - 2016
Lucas D. Introna
Algorithms, or rather algorithmic actions, are seen as problematic because they are inscrutable, automatic, and subsumed in the flow of daily practices. Yet, they are also seen to be playing an important role in organizing opportunities, enacting certain categories, and doing what David Lyon calls “social sorting.” Thus, there is a general concern that this increasingly prevalent mode of ...... hiện toàn bộ
Public Concerns in the United Kingdom about General and Specific Applications of Genetic Engineering: Risk, Benefit, and Ethics
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 22 Số 1 - Trang 98-124 - 1997
Lynn J. Frewer, Chaya Howard, Richard Shepherd
The repertory grid method was used to determine what terminology respondents use to distinguish between different applications of genetic engineering drawn from food- related, agricultural, and medical applications. Respondents were asked to react to fifteen applications phrased in general terms, and results compared with a second study where fifteen more specific applications were used a...... hiện toàn bộ
Problematic Publics: A Critical Review of Surveys of Public Attitudes to Biotechnology
Science Technology and Human Values - Tập 22 Số 3 - Trang 317-348 - 1997
Aidan Davison, Ian Barns, Renato Schibeci
This article discusses a range of recent major surveys of public attitudes toward biotechnology. The authors identify a number of problematic features of the surveys: the use of predominantly consumerist rather than civic conception of public discourse; the assumption of a unitary "general public," a "cognitive deficit" approach to public understanding of science; and the presumption of a...... hiện toàn bộ
