  • TS Special Issue Call For Papers

    Dear Colleague,

    Below is the call for papers for the forthcoming Special Issue of Technology
    Studies (TS) on TECHNOLOGY AND THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT. We are trying to reach
    as broad a base as possible and apologize to those who receive multiple copies.
    Please feel free to pass it on to anyone you think might be interested.

    Sincerely,

    Urs E. Gattiker, Editor
    Technology Studies (TS)

    TECHNOLOGY STUDIES, (The Journal with Open Peer Commentaries), presents its

    First Call for Papers for the
    Special Issue on TECHNOLOGY AND THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT
    __________________________________________________ _________________________

    TECHNOLOGY STUDIES announces a Special Issue on Technology and the Natural
    Environment. TS is a multidisciplinary, international journal published by
    Walter de Gruyter, Inc. (Berlin and New York). The Editor for this Special
    Issue is Tony Redpath, Ontario Centre for Materials Research.

    The issue on Technology and the Natural Environment will provide a forum for
    discussion of environmental issues which arise from the implementation of
    specific technologies, as well as more general concerns about the increasingly
    technological nature of society and the implications this has for both local
    and global environments. Technology includes: hardware; technology practices
    including human behaviour and related technology; techniques or skills
    involving a significant technical component. Dimensions of environment
    include the various aspects of the bio-physical environment such as:
    environmental disasters and crises, environmental management, local, regional
    or global environmental change, pollution, resource management, species
    diversity, endangered species/spaces preservation, species utilization, and
    aspects of the related social, economic, political and physical system
    relationships and dynamics, etc.

    Papers should address environmental issues likely to contribute to an
    understanding of the proper use of technology, and of its role in society.
    The editors welcome papers that are critical, reflective, daring, insightful,
    thorough and most importantly, advance our thinking and understanding about
    broadly relevant technology/environmental issues.

    DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSION IS JUNE 1, 1994
