《技术女权主义》,朱迪·瓦伊克曼著,剑桥:政治出版社,2004年,160页,平装本14英镑,布45英镑。生物医学、遗传学、克隆以及信息和通信方面的新技术是否与更成熟的旧技术完全不同?为什么一些新技术受到学术界的极大关注(如干细胞研究),而另一些却几乎完全被忽视(如食品生产技术)?新技术与普遍存在的全球不平等之间的关系如何?性别与这些新技术的关系是什么?性别与技术的关系应该如何理论化?参与尖端技术变革需要什么样的政治?我们现在都是半机械人了吗?这意味着什么?这些只是Judy Wajcman在她的tour de force TechnoFeminism中提出的一些问题。Judy Wajcman长期以来一直被认为是性别与技术关系最重要的理论家之一。她的作品可能没有像唐娜·哈拉维(Donna Haraway)那样受到热烈欢迎,也没有像朱迪思·巴特勒(Judith Butler)那样获得崇拜名人的地位,但她一直是一位清晰、明晰、严谨的思想家,她的作品为女权主义理论、科学技术研究(STS)做出了重大贡献,最重要的是,思考了它们之间的联系。瓦伊克曼与唐纳德·麦肯齐合编的《技术的社会塑造》被认为是技术社会学的关键和定义性文本,从1985年到1999年第二版出版,重印不下七次。它的优势之一是在主要是男性的“主流”STS和新兴的女权主义者关于家庭,工作场所和生殖技术的写作之间产生对话。这些主题在女权主义面对技术(Wajcman,1991)中得到了进一步的发展,这既是对该领域的回顾,也是在关于技术的社会科学辩论中建立女权主义观点的论据。它探讨了科学作为文化的方式,第14卷,第1期,97-101页,2005年3月
TechnoFeminism, by Judy Wajcman, Cambridge: Polity Press, 2004, 160 pp., paperback £14, cloth £45. Are new technologies in biomedicine, genetics, cloning, and information and communication entirely different from older more established technologies? Why do some new technologies receive huge amounts of academic attention (e.g. stem cell research), while others are ignored almost entirely (e.g. food production technologies)? How are new technologies situated in relation to endemic global inequalities? What is the relationship of gender to these new technologies, and how should gender–technology relations be theorized? What kind of politics is needed to engage with cutting-edge technological transformations? Are we all cyborgs now—and what might this mean? These are just some of the questions addressed by Judy Wajcman in her tour de force TechnoFeminism. Judy Wajcman has long been established as one of our most important theorists of gender–technology relations. Her work may not have been greeted as rapturously as that of Donna Haraway, nor has she achieved the cult-celebrity status of someone like Judith Butler, but she has been a consistently clear, lucid, rigorous thinker whose work has made a major contribution to feminist theory, science and technology studies (STS) and, above all, to thinking the connection between them. The Social Shaping of Technology, which Wajcman co-edited with Donald MacKenzie, is recognized as a key, defining text in the sociology of technology, and was reprinted no fewer than seven times between 1985 and the publication of its second edition in 1999. One of its strengths was in generating a dialogue between largely male ‘mainstream’ STS and emerging feminist writing about domestic, workplace and reproductive technologies. These themes were further developed in Feminism Confronts Technology (Wajcman, 1991) which was both a review of the field and an argument for building a feminist perspective in social science debates about technology. It explored the ways in which Science as Culture Vol. 14, No. 1, 97–101, March 2005
