Product Description

The idea for this book has been born in a dialogue between the authors of In Search of an Integrative Vision for Technology (2006) and a group of scholars and practitioners from South Africa whose research and development activities focuses on problems of traditional African society and culture. Although there existed awareness in the writing of the earlier book that the search for normativity for our technological society should encompass the different cultural spheres of the world, no attention has been paid to the problem of interculturality. Focussing on the development of technology in the ‘developed societies’ the emphasis was laid on finding a basis for ‘interdisciplinarity’, bridging the gaps between the sciences and humanities as well as between theory and practice.
