History Of Utilized Science & Technology

Founded in 1958, the Society for the History of Technology initially attracted members from the historical past career who had pursuits in the contextual history of technology. After the “flip to expertise” within the mid-1980s, the society’s well-regarded journal and its annual meetings started to draw considerable interest from non-historians with technology research interests. In Italy, STS Italia – The Italian Society for Social Studies of Science and Technology was based in 2005. Its mission is “to build up an Italian community of researchers oriented to study Science and Technology ranging from the social dynamics which characterize and interweave science and technology themselves”.
