Note(s) : Recent advances in ICT have given rise to new socially disruptive technologies: AmI
and the IoT, marking a major technological change which may lead to a drastic transformation
of the technological ecosystem in all its complexity, as well as to a major alteration
in technology use and thus daily living. Yet no work has systematically explored AmI
and the IoT as advances in science and technology (S & T) and sociotechnical visions
in light of their nature, underpinning, and practices along with their implications
for individual and social wellbeing and for environmental health. AmI and the IoT
raise new sets of questions: In what way can we conceptualize such technologies? How
can we evaluate their benefits and risks? How should science-based technology and
society's politics relate? Are science-based technology and society converging in
new ways? It is with such questions that this book is concerned. Positioned within
the research field of Science and Technology Studies (STS), which encourages analyses
whose approaches are drawn from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, this book
amalgamates an investigation of AmI and the IoT technologies based on a unique approach
to cross-disciplinary integration; their ethical, social, cultural, political, and
environmental effects; and a philosophical analysis and evaluation of the implications
of such effects. An interdisciplinary approach is indeed necessary to understand the
complex issue of scientific and technological innovations that S & T are not the only
driving forces of the modern, high-tech society, as well as to respond holistically,
knowledgeably, reflectively, and critically to the most pressing issues and significant
challenges of the modern world. This book is the first systematic study on how AmI
and the IoT applications of scientific discovery link up with other developments in
the spheres of the European society, including culture, politics, policy, ethics and
ecological philosophy. It situates AmI
