Article by WITH member Dobres in Technology Special Issue, Cambridge Journal of Economics

WITH:

Here’s an online set of articles (until Feb 19) about technology. Some nice summary work by Dobres, Ingold, Bijker, and for gender and technology, Wajcman. It is interesting that there is no overview about history of technology–even Wacjman who knows something of the field said nothing. It suggests there is need to make history more visible in this ahistorical time. I also think we need to work on the theory side of things (such as the “big picture history” I’ve been interested in).

Dear Friends and Colleagues,

I wanted to let you know that I have a newly published article, “Archaeologies of Technology,” published by the Cambridge Journal of Economics. It is available for free download (until February 19, 2010) at: http://cje.oxfordjournals.org/current.dtl.  I welcome your feedback (gulp!).

peace,
