Call for Papers (Abstract Submission Deadline: 22 Sept. 2013) 11th East Asian STS (EASTS) Network Meeting, 13-16, Nov. 2013 ‘Large Scale Disaster and STS, and the Future of Science & Technology’ 「大規模災害と科学技術社会論、そして科学技術の未来」 East Asian Community has shared recent experiences of terrible earthquakes of 921 at Taiwan in 1999, Sichuan in 2008, Tohoku in 2011 &c. Though large scale disasters are unavoidable, we have observed the case that proper scientific and technological action and decision making was not taken. In addition, as Fukushima, technology itself could cause huge damage to the society. We have recognized the limit of technological counter measure like coastal dykes against tsunami. Is not it time to think about these problems from STS perspectives? East Asia is an area where science and technology based industry develops rapidly. We have scientific, technological and societal potential to tackle these problems. The meeting aims at analyzing light and shadows of science and technology in our region, and at renewing theoretical framing of STS for better future of ST in the world.
