Definición

  • Science, technology, and society (STS) is an interdisciplinary field that seeks greater understanding of the processes by which science, technology, and society mutually shape each other. Research in STS calls attention to and critiques oversimplified conceptions in three broad categories: (1) the nature of scientific knowledge and practice, (2) the process by which technology develops, and (3) the role of science and technology in human experience.
