This article describes the impact of technology on society.

Technological innovation can

be a tool that represents certain forms of power and authority, manages social relations, and

maintains social inequality. The social technology conceptualization that promotes innovation

focuses on the contributions of different types of participants (such as individuals and

organizations), the connections between them, and the role of vision, concepts, and technical

deliverables. These human and non-human network elements have jointly created an innovative

method.

Technology is built for a specific purpose. Organizations that build and operate these

technologies are usually designed to meet their technical requirements by transforming ideas

from technical systems to management systems. Computer innovation and film-based

photography are examples. The technical goals of the system often take precedence over the

social needs and requirements of the labor force constructing and operating the technology. Not

surprisingly, labor disputes often arise. The technical requirements in organizational design have

given way to a focus on positive economic and human outcomes. The socio-technical system is

basically the study of the use and production methods of each technology. This helps to identify

the technical and social ethical errors of the system. The socio-technical system is a mixture of

people and technology. All these projects are so closely related that it is difficult to distinguish

them from each other.

"Do cultural relics have politics?" was Winner's journal article published in 1980. In this

article, Langdon Winner focuses on modern political thought, race, technology, and social

theory. Through this detailed research paper, the author believes that the cultural relics used as

technical objects here have political characteristics and can reflect authority and subordination.
He suggested paying close attention to the technical features surrounding us and the meaning of

those features.

The winner analyzed the close connection between technology and politics. He criticized

technical authority and equal prejudice by providing different examples for each angle. He

showed that technological systems are complex "intertwined in modern political conditions."

This claim means that emphasizing certain aspects of technology (assuming that technology can

be used to guide society in a specific direction) is a view that ignores the complexity of

technology.

He explained how to provide technical arrangement services to maintain social order.

According to him, the curvy New York highway can only pass by private cars, most of which are

private cars owned by the middle class. Therefore, those who mainly use public transportation

(usually representing the lower class) will naturally discourage the use of highways. The tomato

harvester is another example. With the introduction of tomato harvesters, productivity has

increased. As a result, the price of tomatoes is lower because the industry can supply more

tomatoes. Therefore, people who own a machine will be more efficient and cheaper than before.

But those without machines have been hit by price cuts. The machine reshaped the tomato

industry. In fact, the benefits of large producers can be at the expense of "other rural agricultural

communities". Similarly, he explained how technology can participate in maintaining social

order.

He emphasized the flexibility of technology and hoped that "the construction or

deployment of similar equipment or systems will have very different political consequences." He
took Marx and Engels as examples to analyze capital. According to the winner, Marx’s emphasis

on technological flexibility was defensive. The early stage of capital development evolved into a

way of restraining and using workers’ freedom and labor, but they said: "The conditions that

ultimately eliminate the division of capitalism and promote the proletarian revolution are the

conditions hidden by industrial technology itself.

Finally, he concluded that the complexity and contradiction of technology are inherent

conditions of technology. What he is trying to solve here is highly politicized technology

intertwined with the system, and both positions (technical authority and equality) are "applicable

to different situations." Finally, he concluded his thesis by referring to his views on the issue of

new clean energy in the United States, and both supporters and opponents of new clean energy

fell into technological prejudice. What is interesting to me is that he admits that both

contradictory aspects are inherent conditions of technology.

The winners do not seem to express any form of political intent, but in reality, they are

examples of various technological systems designed to produce concrete social outcomes.

provide. These examples illustrate the use of certain techniques to create discrimination, threats,

and maintain power when a skilled leader makes choices. Workers have no right to participate in

the decision-making process that determines how technology affects people's connections.

It is generally believed that some cultural relics need a functioning social structure, while

others need to work with specific power and authority systems (Winner, 1980). However, the

author points out that certain technologies are authoritarian in nature, and their implementation

must require specific social structures. The atomic bomb is one of them. The winners compared

nuclear energy with solar energy. Solar energy is decentralized and does not pose a security risk.
 The winner analyzed the non-democratic technology system. Examples often cited by the

winners are architect Robert Moses and his technique Jim Crowism. As "the main builder of

New York City roads, parks, bridges and other public enterprises in the 1920s and 1970s,"

Moses" built an elevated road whose specifications discouraged driving on his roads. No. 23).

The democratic system “restricted the access of ethnic minorities and low-income people to

Jones Beach, Moses’ acclaimed park” (Winner 23). The winner believed that Moses’ architecture

reflects the systemic influence of racial and class discrimination in society. Physics Barriers

prohibit access to certain public areas. Physical barriers “reflect the systematic social inequality

and how to design the relationship between people, and the relationship between people soon

becomes part of the landscape”.

The winner said that one of the specific topics I was particularly interested in was Lewis

Manford's essays. Some of the techniques are authoritative, while others can achieve democracy.

.. At the macro level, certain technological artifacts, such as radio, telephone, and television, may

appear democratic. But, in fact, if I study in-depth, I think that all technologies considered to be

politically biased are authoritative. For example, I want to focus on the use of cars. The simple

premise behind the car is that it provides a convenient way for people to move between two

places. In this sense, the car in this cultural context can be regarded as a product of liberation and

democracy. However, the price and permitted usage of the car being produced is determined by a

smaller group rather than the person who actually drives the car. Therefore, this is an example of

an emancipatory and democratic technological artifact that is actually authoritative.

The car example simply illustrates my belief that, in today's reality, the cultural and political

environment for placing handicrafts is authoritative. I think Manford’s first distinction is not as

clear as the one suggested. But I don't think that technology as an authoritative artifact is not
necessarily exclusive in nature. On the contrary, I think a few people need to make decisions that

affect the entire population. For me, this centralized decision on technology is an ideal way to

effectively use technology and integrate it into society and culture to promote progress.

A similar situation exists in low-income urban homes where asset values have fallen due to

``urban planning,'' which mainly sends highways, railways, and other fascinating objects to

African-American communities. I will. Racial discrimination is a systemic force that contributes

to the technical separation of the Moses "architecture". This situation represents how white

Americans have treated African Americans throughout history. Moses’ background is a

microcosm of a greater degree of cultural oppression, which was supported by law before 1954

(but, of course, regardless of what former CMS board member Paul Bailey claimed, slavery His

legacy to this day, as evidenced by American history, "is related to the person in charge.

Therefore, a "democratic" society protects technology from unequal social values, attitudes and

practices. Ironically, as the example of the winner Robert Moses shows, these undemocratic

practices still follow social values. Not all cultural "values", such as racial discrimination,

sexism, and homophobia, have value.
