Furthermore, in pluralist cultures, we allow the legal aspects of our social world to determine the moral aspects. Consequently, if something is legal, it is therefore good. Where does technology fit into this presumed linear pattern of assumptions? Technology is a manifestation of the social world and the social world's relationship to the natural world, and is not solely a manifestation of the natural world. In fact, the limitations of the natural world are far removed from our ultimate technological practices. Therefore, \"forcing\" technological discovery to occur means constructing a norm about our relationships with each other and the natural world. The resistance to that force is social, not natural.","PeriodicalId":226458,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Symposium on Technology and Society Technology and Society at a Time of Sweeping Change.

Progress depends on unbalance and disorder 进步取决于不平衡和无序

Technology is another state of progress depending on unbalanced structures of human functions and relations. In balanced societies and cultures which are considered as technologically primitive, what we see is a lack of technology, but also a state of balance and order. It is not surprising to see that great technological developments have appeared under most unstable conditions. Particularly in the industrial period, the Western culture has witnessed enormous instabilities in social, cultural, ethical, logical, and aesthetic structures. During the period of \"the immense technological alterations\", the world has experienced two large scale wars with countless small scale ones, large scale hunger, and large scale and ever increasing contradictions between parties with social and mental extremities, from religious extremities to drug addiction and high depression. Hand in hand with these developing contradictions and extremities there seems to be another development which appears in the technological area that makes us ask the question: is there is a relation between these issues.","PeriodicalId":226458,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Symposium on Technology and Society Technology and Society at a Time of Sweeping Change.

If an attempt is made to spread it globally, it would not only be environmentally disastrous, it would also have severe economic and social consequences. Since the early 1970's, the Indices of Sustainable Economic Welfare of the UK, the US and Germany have all been in decline despite increases in the GNPs, as the negative effects of growth have exceeded the beneficial effects. The main causes of this unsustainability are described, pointing to the necessity of adopting a circular, closed system of development that is waste and pollution minimising. In such a mode of development, service systems will aim for optimum resource efficiency by using eco-efficient technologies. Guiding concepts for application of eco-efficiency are illustrated, together with an outline of the Lifecycle Inventory method of product, package and integrated waste management.","PeriodicalId":226458,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Symposium on Technology and Society Technology and Society at a Time of Sweeping Change.

In the 1960s, society was undergoing a period of tremendous change, when to be 'modern' was de rigeur. Space exploration was a superlative symbol, a cultural icon of the sixties, and it became a driving force for change within the putative consumer society. Space Age images have been used, particularly in advertising and entertainment, for the past four decades-a trend that seems likely to continue. But it is the application of space technology itself-in communications, navigation, remote sensing and meteorology-which has had the greatest, and often overlooked, impact on society. The paper investigates how space technology and the use of Space Age images has developed since the early days of space exploration, and to what extent they are still a part of our culture.","PeriodicalId":226458,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Symposium on Technology and Society Technology and Society at a Time of Sweeping Change.

Raw materials-why should they ever run out? 原材料——为什么会耗尽呢?

Some years ago, there was so much copper in electronic devices and communication links that supplies ran short. Now we use very small quantities of silicon, which is one of the most abundant elements on the Earth's crust. Millions of integrated circuits and the expected world expansion in personal communications will have a negligible impact on world resources. Other examples taken from energy and transport show a similar trend. It appears that, as we learn more, and engineers become more expert at making use of what we have, so our needs change and yesterday's shortage becomes today's abundance. Engineers can help this happen. Unnecessary restrictions on the use of raw materials, in the mistaken belief that they are going to run out in a few years time, is a mistake. Let us concentrate on making the best use of all the resources and raw materials available in the most efficient way, so as to make a world providing a good standard of living for all its population.","PeriodicalId":226458,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Symposium on Technology and Society Technology and Society at a Time of Sweeping Change.
