Values in Technology Design: Democracy, Autonomy, and Justice
How do we ensure a place for values, alongside technical standards
such as speed, efficiency, and reliability, as criteria by which we
judge quality and acceptability of communication systems and new media?
How do values such as privacy, autonomy, democracy, and social justice
become integral to the conception, design, and development of communication
technology, not merely retrofitted after completion?
Values
in Technology Design is a project
for researchers, practitioners, and public interest advocates who
understand that information and communication technologies are a crucial
medium for asserting social, political, and moral values such as freedom,
autonomy, justice, privacy and democracy.
