"Science,
technology and innovation studies (STIS) are crucial for understanding
the
dynamics of the contemporary knowledge society, and thus play an
important role
in the intellectual profile of the University of Amsterdam (UvA).
Given
the role of science and technology today, a social science faculty
which is
committed to the study of current social, cultural, political and
economic
changes, occurring on both local and global scale, incorporates in
its
program a field which devotes its attention to innovation and to the
manner in
which science and technology develop. This Report has been prepared for
the
Faculty of Social and Behavioral Sciences, and in particular
the Amsterdam
School
for Social science Research
(ASSR) and the Amsterdam School of Communications Research (ASCoR). The
first
section introduces the field of STIS at the intellectual level. The
second
section briefly outlines the history of STIS at the UvA and provides
information about its position and reputation both nationally and
internationally.
The third
section provides recommendations for consideration by the Faculty, ASSR
and
ASCoR. The appendices contain information about publications and other
activities of STIS-identified staff within the Faculty.
