计算机、信息和生物技术正在给社会生活的本质带来重大变化,以至于一种新的文化秩序--“网络文化”--正在形成。本文概述了在新技术领域正在进行的人类学分析的类型,并提出了网络文化人类学的阐述的其他步骤。它建立在各个领域的科学,技术和社会研究以及对现代性的批判性研究的基础上。技术科学对人类学理论和民族志研究的影响进行了探讨。
Significant changes in the nature of social life are being brought about by computer, information, and biological technologies, to the extent that-some argue-a new cultural order, ''cyberculture,'' is coming into being. This paper presents an overview of the types of anthropological analyses that are being conducted in the area of new technologies and suggests additional steps for the articulation of an anthropology of cyberculture. it builds upon science, technology, and society studies in various fields and on critical studies of modernity. The implications of technoscience for both anthropological theory and ethnographic research are explored.
