项目摘要

9400155 Rabinow Under the direction of Dr. Paul Rabinow, Mr. Peter Redfield is exploring local effects of a global technological system, examining the primary launch facilities of the French and European space programs at Kourou, French Guiana. The focus of this project is on the social and cultural aspects of the location of this large center of high technology outside of the industrialized world,a nd its relation to the small multiethnic society surrounding it on the edge of the South American rainforest. Two interrelated questions guide the investigation: First, what is the significance of geographic and social location within a technical system, and the relationship of technology to issues of development? Second, what are the symbolic roles of technology in the cultural evaluation of development. Through an ethnographic and historical examination of interactions between international technology and a particular place, the project seeks to compliment recent exchanges between anthropology and social studies of science and technology by presenting within a local frame a specific case study of one extension of modern technology beyond the West. This grant provides support for ethnographic fieldwork in French Guiana as well as archival research in France. ***

9400155拉比诺在保罗·拉比诺博士的指导下，彼得·雷德菲尔德先生正在探讨全球技术系统的地方影响，审查法国和欧洲空间方案在法属圭亚那库鲁的主要发射设施。这个项目的重点是在工业化世界之外的这个大型高科技中心的社会和文化方面，以及它与周围南美洲雨林边缘的小型多民族社会的关系。两个相互关联的问题指导了调查：第一，技术系统中的地理和社会位置的意义是什么，技术与发展问题的关系是什么？第二，技术在发展的文化评价中的象征作用是什么。通过对国际技术与特定地区之间相互作用的民族志和历史考察，该项目试图通过在当地框架内展示现代技术在西方以外延伸的具体案例研究，来赞扬人类学和科学技术社会研究之间最近的交流。这笔赠款为法属圭亚那的民族志实地考察以及法国的档案研究提供支持。＊＊＊
