Soft Technology and Forth Generation of Technology Foresight
Journal Title: Roshd-e-Fanavari - Year 2006, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
"This article elaborates earlier arguments about the practical and intellectual value of soft technology by showing how the enlightened application of that concept in the field of technology foresight (or technological forecasting) would improve the effectiveness of the field. It also shows how the evolution of technology foresight as a profession and academic field has, in its own way, facilitated the development of soft technology. It also argues that technology foresight techniques are themselves an example of soft technology."
