This book makes significant advances in analysing the relationship
between technology and society. It highlights both the policy
implications of this relationship and new possibilities for
intervention by government, policymakers, managers and the public.
Shaping Technology, Guiding Policy examines and utilises a variety
of recently emerging concepts which highlight the scope for local
discretion and choice in the way that technologies are designed and
used as well as the broader structures and systems that may serve
to restrict choice. By applying these concepts to an analysis of
case studies of various social and technical settings, the book
explores their utility for understanding the ways in which
contemporary technologies are developed and applied and how they
are made to influence society. Academics and researchers from a
wide variety of perspectives will find this new book fascinating
reading, including scholars from science and technology studies,
technology policy and the management of technology. Technology
policymakers and practitioners would also find the book of
interest.
