The Fifth International Conference on Technology, Knowledge and Society will take place Jan. 30 – Feb. 1, 2009, in Huntsville, AL.

This Conference will address a range of critically important themes in the various fields that address the relationships between technology, knowledge and society. The Conference is cross-disciplinary in scope, a meeting point for technologists with a concern for the social and social scientists with a concern for the technological.
