cultural attitudes towards technology and communication
About CATaC
| The biennial conference series on Cultural Attitudes towards Technology and Communication provides one of the most significant international forums for research on how diverse culture attitudes and communication preferences shape the implementation and use of information and communication technologies. The conference series brings together scholars from around the globe who provide diverse perspectives, both in terms of the specific culture(s) they highlight in their presentations and discussions, and in terms of the discipline(s) through which they approach the conference themes.
The conference proceedings, along with a subsequent book and special issues in both print and electronic journals (e.g. Journal of Computer-Mediated Communication, 2003, 2005, 2007) that collect conference papers, have become primary resources in the growing field of both theoretical and practical literature on culture, technology, and communication. |
