Roboter, Künstliche Intelligenz und digitale Vernetzung treiben die Automatisierung der Produktion voran. Die lebendige Arbeit werde verschwinden, der Mensch endgültig ersetzbar, warnen die einen aufgeregt. Die anderen sehen Wachstumspotenziale, Standortvorteile – oder sogar neue Chancen zur Überwindung des Kapitalismus. Karl Marx war Zeit seines Lebens fasziniert von den Potenzialen der Technik, Produktivkraft war der Begriff, den er dafür prägte. Wie kann heute eine an Marx orientierte Analyse den technologischen Wandel erklären? Was ist das Neue, wo tritt nur das Alte in anderer Form auf die Bühne? Braucht die Kritik des Kapitalismus neue Begriffe?

In Pressed for Time, Judy Wajcman explains why we immediately interpret our experiences with digital technology as inexorably accelerating everyday life. She argues that we are not mere hostages to communication devices, and the sense of always being rushed is the result of the priorities and parameters we ourselves set rather than the machines that help us set them."--Jacket

* Gives an up--to--date analysis of the relations between gender and technology * Deals with popular themes such as Donna Harraway's work on "cyborgs" * Provides a continuation to the arguments that Wajcman made in her previous Polity book Feminism Confronts Technology.

Technological change is often seen as something that follows its own logic - something we may welcome, or about which we may protest, but which we are unable to alter fundamentally. This reader challenges that assumption and its distinguished contributors demonstrate that technology is affected at a fundamental level by the social context in which it develops. General arguments are introduced about the relation of technology to society and different types of technology are examined: the technology of production; domestic and reproductive technology; and military technology.

Feminism Confronts Technology provides a lively and engaging exploration of the impact of technology on women's lives from word processors to food processors, and genetic engineering to the design of cities. Comprehensive and critical, this book surveys the sociological and feminist literature on technology, highlighting the male bias in the way technology is defined as well as developed. Wajcman sets the scene with an overview of feminist theories of science and technology: encompassing the technologies of production and reproduction as well as domestic technology. The author challenges the common assumption that technology is gender neutral, looking at whether technology can liberate women or whether the new technologies are reinforcing sexual divisions in society.
