This is a new listserv for people interested in ''Science, Technology and Society''
Topics include: social influences on science and technology; risk; governance of science; public understanding of science, etc...
The listserv develops a forum for concerns among junior STS scholars and publicizes information about jobs, fellowships, conferences, edited volumes, and journals in the field.
See below for more information, and on how to subscribe.
STSGRAD LISTSERV INFORMATION: The listserv, STSGRAD-L, is intended to faciliate the formation of an international network of young scholars (eg., graduate students, postdocs, junior scholars) who are interested in the field of Science and Technology Studies. This listserv will have three purposes: 1) to circulate information about upcoming conferences, opportunities to present or publish papers, and job postings; 2) help establish linkages among scholars with similar theoretical and empirical interests; and 3) provide a forum to generate broad discussion about issues important to young scholars across the world engaged with the field of Science and Technology Studies.
There are a couple of things I'd like you all to keep in mind with regard to the listserv. First, if you have any friends or colleagues who might be interested in subscribing, please forward them this message and information about subscribing to the list. This network is not intended to be restrictive to any particular organization, institution, or theoretical perspective. The more the merrier! Second, this listserv is intended to be a collective effort. If you see any interesting job or conference postings, opportunities for publication or presention, or are seeking expertise in a particular area, please take advantage of this great resource. If we all take some responsibility in maintaining this list, I think it can be really important and valuable to all of us.
HOW TO SUBSCRIBE: Send a message to listproc@cornell.edu. In the text of the message, write: subscribe STSGRAD-L First Name Last Name. If you want to send messages to the list, you send them to STSGRAD-L@cornell.edu.
