Приглашение к участию в международной научно-практической конференции
КОНТУРЫ БУДУЩЕГО: ТЕХНОЛОГИИ И ИННОВАЦИИ
В КУЛЬТУРНОМ КОНТЕКСТЕ
1 – 3 ноября 2017 г.
Санкт-Петербург, Россия
В отличие от традиционного и индустриального обществ, где будущее было предрешено, хотя и в разных метафорах или категориях, для постиндустриального общества оно превращается в пространство риска и нелинейного конструирования ожиданий. Будущее существует сегодня как дискурс и риторика, как соперничество образов и программ, формирующих потенциал реальных инноваций. Сценарии будущего продуктивны и обладают преобразующей силой – они направляют исследовательские практики, политические и экономические решения, формируют акторов и точки роста.
В центре внимании конференции – гуманитарная сторона технологического развития и процесс производства знания о технологиях будущего. Участникам предлагается обратить внимание на концепцию социотехнического воображаемого (Sheila Jasanoff) как совокупности культурных практик, в которых формируются образы желаемого будущего. В них вовлечены не только традиционные эксперты (ученые, инженеры, политики), но и писатели, журналисты, художники. Успех и конкретная конфигурация становящихся научно-технических проектов зависит от осведомленности общества, проработанности возможных социальных, правовых и культурных аспектов и от эстетического осмысления.
Участникам конференции предлагается активно привлекать проблематику STS (Science and Technology Studies) с их анализом политических, культурных, социальных, этических аспектов технологического развития и производства научного знания. Современный подход к исследованиям науки и технологий воплощен в методологических программах социального конструирования технологий (SCOT), акторно-сетевой теории (ANT), концепции доместикации технологий. Для STS важно не только, как наука и техника влияют на общество, но также как люди (в т.ч. простые пользователи) оказывают влияние на технологии.
Для участия приглашаются философы, социологи, культурологи, историки, филологи и все, кто касается в своих исследованиях гуманитарных аспектов технологического прогресса. Планируется молодежная секция с участием студентов, магистрантов, аспирантов.
Примерный круг вопросов, предлагаемых для обсуждения:
* философия науки и техники: будущее как эпистемологическая проблема; философия технологических утопий;
* методология исследования будущего: STS; социология ожиданий, социотехническое воображаемое; формы «работы с будущим» в рамках стратегического планирования;
* лексикон наук и дискурс будущего; проблемы перевода; история понятий;
* социология инноваций: политики производства научного знания и технологического обновления; социальные и психологические аспекты развития информационно-коммуникационных технологий;
* этические аспекты новых технологий: биоэтика, роботоэтика, информационная этика etc.
* эстетическое измерение технологии: Science art, новые медиа; репрезентации науки и техники в литературе и искусстве; визуальные образы будущего;
* культурная история техники: технологии и национальная идентичность; технологии как объект культурного трансфера; конфигурации технокультуры; социокультурные аспекты взаимодействия пользователей с технологиями; доместикация технологий;
* Digital Humanities;
* архивы будущего: исторический опыт прогнозирования, проектирования и конструирования будущего; музеефикация техники; индустриальное наследие; индустриальная археология;
К началу конференции будет издан сборник материалов.
Возможно заочное участие (со стендовым докладом, презентацией, публикацией).
Рабочие языки конференции: русский и английский.
Участие в конференции бесплатное .
Для участия в конференции необходимо:
* до 1 июля 2017 г. направить в Оргкомитет конференции по адресу [email protected] заявку с темой доклада и сведениями об авторе (имя, фамилия, место работы и должность, телефон, электронная почта). В срок до 15 июля 2017 г. участники будут уведомлены о результатах рассмотрения заявки;
* до 10 сентября 2017 г . направить по E-mail в Оргкомитет текст доклада (от 10 до 20 тыс. зн.), при необходимости – приложить иллюстрации, таблицы и т.п.
Оргкомитет оставляет за собой право отбора заявок.

Приглашение к участию в международной научно-практической конференции
КОНТУРЫ БУДУЩЕГО: ТЕХНОЛОГИИ И ИННОВАЦИИ
В КУЛЬТУРНОМ КОНТЕКСТЕ
1 – 3 ноября 2017 г.
Санкт-Петербург, Россия
В отличие от традиционного и индустриального обществ, где будущее было предрешено, хотя и в разных метафорах или категориях, для постиндустриального общества оно превращается в пространство риска и нелинейного конструирования ожиданий. Будущее существует сегодня как дискурс и риторика, как соперничество образов и программ, формирующих потенциал реальных инноваций. Сценарии будущего продуктивны и обладают преобразующей силой – они направляют исследовательские практики, политические и экономические решения, формируют акторов и точки роста.
В центре внимании конференции – гуманитарная сторона технологического развития и процесс производства знания о технологиях будущего. Участникам предлагается обратить внимание на концепцию социотехнического воображаемого (Sheila Jasanoff) как совокупности культурных практик, в которых формируются образы желаемого будущего. В них вовлечены не только традиционные эксперты (ученые, инженеры, политики), но и писатели, журналисты, художники. Успех и конкретная конфигурация становящихся научно-технических проектов зависит от осведомленности общества, проработанности возможных социальных, правовых и культурных аспектов и от эстетического осмысления.
Участникам конференции предлагается активно привлекать проблематику STS (Science and Technology Studies) с их анализом политических, культурных, социальных, этических аспектов технологического развития и производства научного знания. Современный подход к исследованиям науки и технологий воплощен в методологических программах социального конструирования технологий (SCOT), акторно-сетевой теории (ANT), концепции доместикации технологий. Для STS важно не только, как наука и техника влияют на общество, но также как люди (в т.ч. простые пользователи) оказывают влияние на технологии.
Для участия приглашаются философы, социологи, культурологи, историки, филологи и все, кто касается в своих исследованиях гуманитарных аспектов технологического прогресса. Планируется молодежная секция с участием студентов, магистрантов, аспирантов.
Примерный круг вопросов, предлагаемых для обсуждения:
* философия науки и техники: будущее как эпистемологическая проблема; философия технологических утопий;
* методология исследования будущего: STS; социология ожиданий, социотехническое воображаемое; формы «работы с будущим» в рамках стратегического планирования;
* лексикон наук и дискурс будущего; проблемы перевода; история понятий;
* социология инноваций: политики производства научного знания и технологического обновления; социальные и психологические аспекты развития информационно-коммуникационных технологий;
* этические аспекты новых технологий: биоэтика, роботоэтика, информационная этика etc.
* эстетическое измерение технологии: Science art, новые медиа; репрезентации науки и техники в литературе и искусстве; визуальные образы будущего;
* культурная история техники: технологии и национальная идентичность; технологии как объект культурного трансфера; конфигурации технокультуры; социокультурные аспекты взаимодействия пользователей с технологиями; доместикация технологий;
* Digital Humanities;
* архивы будущего: исторический опыт прогнозирования, проектирования и конструирования будущего; музеефикация техники; индустриальное наследие; индустриальная археология;
К началу конференции будет издан сборник материалов.
Возможно заочное участие (со стендовым докладом, презентацией, публикацией).
Рабочие языки конференции: русский и английский.
Участие в конференции бесплатное .
Для участия в конференции необходимо:
* до 1 июля 2017 г. направить в Оргкомитет конференции по адресу [email protected] заявку с темой доклада и сведениями об авторе (имя, фамилия, место работы и должность, телефон, электронная почта). В срок до 15 июля 2017 г. участники будут уведомлены о результатах рассмотрения заявки;
* до 10 сентября 2017 г . направить по E-mail в Оргкомитет текст доклада (от 10 до 20 тыс. зн.), при необходимости – приложить иллюстрации, таблицы и т.п.
Оргкомитет оставляет за собой право отбора заявок.
