But why? Because technology is about people as much as things. As a human endeavor, technology belongs as much to the humanities and social sciences as to the natural sciences. Technologies arise only when people consciously transform the material world for human ends. Without the humans who create, maintain and use technologies, they would not exist.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\u003C\/blockquote\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/hsoc.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EThe School of History and Sociology\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;is a unit of\u0026nbsp;Georgia Tech\u0026#39;s\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.iac.gatech.edu\/\u0022\u003EIvan Allen College of Liberal Arts\u003C\/a\u003E.\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/outlook\/2019\/06\/10\/want-fix-tech-industry-start-with-humanities\/?noredirect=on\u0026amp;utm_term=.cd1a0e6bda0a\u0022\u003ERead the full article.\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\r\n","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":"","uid":"34559","created_gmt":"2019-06-13 22:20:42","changed_gmt":"2019-06-13 22:20:42","author":"pdemerritt3","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","publication":"cohort","field_article_url":"","publication_url":"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/outlook\/2019\/06\/10\/want-fix-tech-industry-start-with-humanities\/?noredirect=on\u0026utm_term=.cd1a0e6bda0a","dateline":{"date":"2019-06-13T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2019-06-13T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"594788":{"id":"594788","type":"image","title":"Eric Schatzberg","body":null,"created":"1503421542","gmt_created":"2017-08-22 17:05:42","changed":"1503421542","gmt_changed":"2017-08-22 17:05:42","alt":"Eric Schatzberg","file":{"fid":"226682","name":"Schatzberg cropped.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Schatzberg%20cropped.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/Schatzberg%20cropped.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":904766,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/Schatzberg%20cropped.jpg?itok=Y_nyys4s"}}},"media_ids":["594788"],"groups":[{"id":"1281","name":"Ivan Allen College of Liberal Arts"}],"categories":[{"id":"151","name":"Policy, Social Sciences, and Liberal Arts"}],"keywords":[{"id":"174735","name":"Eric Schatzberg"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
