Studies in History, Technology and Society
Discipline:History, Art History, and Archaeology
This series seeks to present scholarship about the role of technology in history. It focuses on how technical communities, nation-states, businesses, social groups, and other actors have contested, projected, performed, and reproduced multiple representations of Europe while constructing and using a range of technologies. The series understands Europe both as an intellectual construct and material practices in relation to spaces.
