Feminist Technology Assessment: Reflections On Theory And Practice

This paper explores the use of technology assessment as an approach to working with women in three contexts - unionized work settings, women's organizations interested in computer networking, and in a university classroom setting. A brief overview of technology assessment is presented, the three projects are described, and the successes and failures of each of the projects are discussed.
