Feminist Technology
ISBN: 9780252035326 / Angielski / Twarda / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Is there such a thing as a "feminist technology"? If so, what makes a technology feminist?

In this collection, feminist scholars trained in diverse fields consider these questions by examining a range of products, tools, and technologies that were specifically designed for and marketed to women. Evaluating the claims that such products are liberating for women, the contributors focus on case studies of menstrual-suppressing birth control pills, home pregnancy tests,...

ISBN: 9781529218107 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Do digital networks make a difference to the scope, scale and severity of social harm?

Matthew David gives fresh insights into online harms and behaviours in the fields of hate, obscenity, corruptions of citizenship and appropriation, offering a comprehensive and integrated approach for those both new and experienced in...
