Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information The Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Science, Technology, and Society is part of a major initiative from Oxford University Press to transform its approach to reference publishing in order to better serve the changing needs of university-level digital research. Through the Oxford Research Encyclopedia (ORE) program, Oxford is building dynamic online encyclopedias in 20+ disciplines that will be continuously updated by the world's leading scholars, scientists, and researchers. With expert editors and peer-review, the ORE project will combine the discoverability of digital with the standards of academic publishing. With today’s overabundance of information, and misinformation, students and researchers alike can be overwhelmed when trying to identify what’s trustworthy, what’s up-to-date, and what’s accurate. The Oxford Research Encyclopedia in Science, Technology, and Society (STS) brings together leading scholars from several disciplines to analyze and explain how and why science and technology are dominant motifs of our world. As science and technology more directly drive our economic realitiesfrom emerging technologies that allow humanity to communicate across space and time, to computationally derived networked systems that undergird global financial marketsSTS provides relevant commentary that enables us to envision a more equitable world. Similarly, science and technology influence, shape, and redefine our social interactions, political institutions, and cultural values. The emergence of social media exemplifies this reality. Put briefly, this ORE shows how science, technology, and societypast, present, and futureare co-creational, historically contingent, and impossible to untangle. Its broad themes include computing, artificial intelligence, and machine learning; security, surveillance, and observation; ethics, replicability, and reproducibility; and art, design, and creative expression.
