The Transformative Capacity of New Technologies: A Theory of Sociotechnical Change

By Ulrich Dolata

Book Overview

The Transformative Capacity of New Technologies

explores the questions: how and to what extent do socioeconomic structures, institutions, and actors change under the influence of new technologies? how do they react to technology-induced pressures to change? what patterns do they adopt?

The book provides practical tools for analyzing and classifying exceptional periods of substantial socio-technical change.
