1 The Information Age STSC 160 Fall 2007 Certain new technologies are greeted with claims that, for good or ill, they must transform our society. The two most recent: the computer and the Internet. But the series of social, economic, and technological developments that underlie what is often called the Information Revolution include much more than just the computer. In this course, we examine what made this series of developments seem so revolutionary, who said what about them, and why. We chart changing perceptions of information technologies as people begin to experience them as a part of everyday life and work. We will explore both the technologies themselves as well as their larger social, economic, and political context.these perspectives will inform our discussion of current issues such as life and censorship in cyberspace. Professor Nathan L. Ensmenger nathanen@sas.upenn.edu
