Aims & Scope

Technology in Society is an international journal devoted to a range of interdisciplinary fields most simply identified by the terms: technology assessment, science, technology and society; management of technology; technology and policy; the economics of technology; technology transfer, appropriate technology and economic development; ethical and value implications of science and technology; science and public policy; and technology forecasting. A focus common to all these fields is the role of technology in society - its economics, political and cultural dynamics; the social forces that shape technological decisions and the choices that are open to society with respect to the uses of technology.
