Open up the Culture of Masculinity in Computer Technology for Gender and Diversity. A Conversation with Judy Wajcman. By Marion Mangelsdorf

Abstract

Abstract

The following interview is based on an online conversation that took place in February 2021 between Feminist Science and Technology Studies (STS) researchers Judy Wajcman and Marion Mangelsdorf. In 2004 Judy Wajcman published the STS classic TechnoFeminism, in which she analyses the fundamental presence of digital technologies and technological design processes. Wajcman discusses the range of feminist positions on the technological history of digitization and draws attention to the challenges that still exist today. She casts her decidedly critical eye on the gender issues as well as the racial bias that characterize digitization and assesses opportunities for cultural change.
