  • Review of Philosophical Tools / 130 Review of Philosophical Tools Craig Hanks Texas State University, San Marcos
    Techné 7:3 Spring 2004 Hanks, Review of Philosophical Tools / 130 Review of Philosophical Tools Craig Hanks Texas State University, San Marcos Philosophical Tools for Technological Culture: Putting Pragmatism to Work. Larry Hickman. Bloomington, Indiana University Press, 2001. Philosophy recovers itself when it ceases to be a device for dealing with the problems of philosophers and becomes a method, cultivated by philosophers, for dealing with the problems of men. (John Dewey, “The Need for a Recovery of Philosophy,” p. 95.) In Philosophical Tools for Technological Culture: Putting Pragmatism to Work, (2001), Larry A. Hickman argues that thinking about philosophy, with Dewey, as being properly concerned with the actually existing problems of human beings, and that placing a philosophy of technology at the center of our philosophical concerns, is necessary “if we are to convert conditions that range all the way from what is merely irritating to what is life-threatening into situations that are stable, harmonious, and more nearly what we wish them to be” (p. 28). Hickman finds great advantages in John Dewey’s philosophy, properly understood as “productive pragmatism.” As a philosophical tradition with explicitly applied intent, Pragmatism might be expected to be a central player in our discussion of science and technology. And, while it is flourishing in certain particular arenas (consider Andrew Light’s work on Environmental Philosophy and Glenn McGee’s in Bioethics), as Larry Hickman has pointed out, citing the estimable American Philosophy of Technology: The Empirical Turn (2001), Pragmatism is often strangely absent from more general discussions in philosophy of technology. Taken together with the fact that philosophy of technology is itself rather at the margins of mainstream philosophy, Hickman has a difficult task indeed.

    PHIL 4310: Philosophy of Technology Syllabus Fall 2010 Course Information Phil 4310 Philosophy of Technology Fall 2010 MW 4:00pm{5:15pm Contact Information Professor Matthew J. Brown Email Address [email protected] Office Phone 972{883{2536 Office Location JO 5.708 Office Hours Wednesday 1:30-3:30pm Teaching Assistant Andy Amato Email Address [email protected] Office Location JO 5.410D Office Hours MW 3:00-4:00pm Course Pre-requisites, Co-requisites, and/or Other Restrictions Prerequisites: PHIL 1301 or the equivalent and HUMA 1301 or the equivalent. This course is upper-level course in philosophy and assumes basic familiarity with the problems, modes of inquiry, and major traditions of mainstream philosophy, though no particular familiarity with any philosophical specializations are assumed. As an upper-level course in the humanities, it presupposes the basic skills of reading, analyzing, and writing at an academic level. Students unused to reading and writ- ing about difficult, sometimes fairly technical material are urged to consult with the professor early and often. Course Description The goal of this course is to teach you to think critically about the nature of technol- ogy and its role in our lives and our society. In part this requires instilling a healthy skepticism about two common, unreflective positions on technology: (1) the fanatical techno-boosterism of the popular science and technology press, in which technology is seen as the key to heaven on earth, and (2) a knee-jerk, doom-and-gloom luddism 1 and technology-bashing. While there is much to appreciate and much to be critical of in modern technology, both appreciation and criticism ought to be thoughtful and well-grounded.

  • Critical Theory, Pragmatism and Philosophy of Technology: Thinking About the Relations Between Technology and Democracy
    Critical Theory, Pragmatism and Philosophy of Technology: Thinking About the Relations Between Technology and Democracy Craig Hanks, Associate Professor of Philosophy Final Report: Research Enhancement Program 2004, Texas State University—San Marcos Craig Hanks, Associate Professor of Philosophy was awarded a REP award for summer 2004 for Critical Theory, Pragmatism and Philosophy of Technology: Thinking About the Relations Between Technology and Democracy. The goal of the project was to ask, “What is relationship between technology and democracy?” and explore three dominant traditional answers to this question: • There is no relationship; technology is neutral with respect to human activities and values. • There is a positive relationship; more technology will bring more democracy. • There is a negative relationship; technology is a cage of our own making. The project focused on two schools of philosophy that take this question quite seriously, while rejecting all three of the traditional answers: American Pragmatism, and Critical Theory. These intellectual traditions are also interdisciplinary, and explicitly aim at not merely intellectual, but also practical outcomes. The work proceeded in two stages. First, the founding representatives of Critical Theory of Technology (Benjamin, Adorno, Marcuse) and Pragmatic Philosophy of Technology (Dewey, Peirce) were analyzed and their theories explicated and evaluated. Second, contemporary versions of Critical Theory (Habermas, Feenberg) and Pragmatism (Hickman, Light, Thompson) were analyzed and evaluated. The results include: • Critical Theory and Pragmatism have much ground for dialogue, more than even their contemporary adherents admit. • Together they offer grounds for lines of empirical research into the implications of technological change for individual and collective self-determination (the heart of democracy).
