| Abstract: | The purpose of this essay is to: (1) detail how recent trends in philosophical theory have made it possible for philosophers
of technology to critically discuss technology transfer; (2) demonstrate that economic standards of assessment are conducive
to obscuring the hidden tradeoffs that technological practices, such as mobile phone use in Bangladesh, can engender; and
(3) provide the basis of an alternative model that can reflexively addresses dimensions of technology transfer that neo-classical
economic accounts occlude. |
