Zusammenfassung

Wie gesellschaftlicher und technischer Wandel zusammenhängen ist eine der großen Fragen in der Wissenschafts- und Technikforschung.

Zwischen den Autoren und ihren Werken werden Ähnlichkeiten, Unterschiede und Entwicklungslinien aufgezeigt, um an dieser Diskussion auch das Nachdenken über Technik und Gesellschaft im historischen Verlauf zu veranschaulichen.
