History of Women in Technology Female achievements in technoscience

History of Women in Technology historical & sociological approach technology and the division of labor vs. technological determinism labor process analysis: social groups have different interests and resources :: conflict bw different views of the technical requirements of the technological artefacts technological determinism: changes in technology are the most important cause of social change (technologies are neutral and affect society from the outside :: social location of scientists and technologists is irrelevant)

History of Women in Technology historical & sociological approach gender dimension (labor division approach): relations of production are constructed as much by gender divisions as class divisions industrial technology from its origins reflects male power (in addition to capitalist domination)

History of Women in Technology historical & sociological approach women’s exclusion from technology is the consequence of the gender division of labor and male domination of skilled trades during the industrial revolution machinery was designed by men in mind women had no access to formal technical knowledge and resources to participate in invention of new technologies (domestic sphere) masculine culture of technology & gender division of labor perpetuated with new technologies (integral to the nature of innovation)

History of Women in Technology historical & sociological approach technology constructed socially affirms and consolidates relations amongst men as shown by the study of adoption of technologies in the industrial era technical competence as integral to masculine gender identity (how do women get involved?) technological artefacts (tools) reflect a process of negotiation in which technology is constructed in a technical, social, political, economic arena that replicates existing spheres of activity for men and women

History of Women in Technology historical & sociological approach historical cases & empirical research identify contexts in which women redesign technology technology in the domestic environment technology in women’s occupations (filing systems, telephone) women employed in ammunition factories during WWI women and office work: filing systems women employed in shipyards during WWII

Norman Rockwell: Rosie the Riveter

History of Women in Technology How are certain technological artefacts shaped by gender interests? How is technological change and innovation shaped by gender interests? What are the roots of technological exclusion of women from the technological community?
