Abstract

Immer wieder liest man, dass Hersteller ihre Produkte bewusst so konstruieren, dass sie vorzeitig kaputtgehen. Die Leidtragenden: die Kunden. Viele Hersteller aber wollen den Verschleiß hinauszögern. Wie gehen sie vor, um Obsoleszenz zu planen? Der Band präsentiert erstmals die Sicht und die Erfahrungen derer, die Produkte entwickeln, konstruieren und fertigen. Die Beiträge beschäftigen sich mit Reparierbarkeit als Geschäftsmodell, Product Lifecycle Management, Obsoleszenz als Managementthema, der Rolle staatlicher Einflussnahme und den gesellschaftlichen Treibern der Kurzlebigkeit von Konsumartikeln. »Die Beiträge des Bandes stärken nicht der Wirtschaft den Rücken, sondern plädieren für eine wissenschaftliche Systematisierung des Problems.« form, 287 (2020) Besprochen in: https://ndion.de, 15.06.2020, Thomas Wagner

Abstract

The central questions of this book are how technologies decline, how societies deal with technologies in decline, and how governance may be explicitly oriented towards parting with 'undesirable' technology. Surprisingly, these questions are fairly novel. Thus far, the dominant interest in historical, economic, sociological and political studies of technology has been to understand how novelty emerges, how innovation can open up new opportunities and how such processes may be supported. This innovation bias reflects how in the last centuries modern societies have embraced technology as a vehicle of progress. It is timely, however, to broaden the social study of technology and society: next to considering the rise of technologies, their fall should be addressed, too. Dealing with technologies in decline is an important challenge or our times, as socio-technical systems are increasingly part of the problems of climate change, biodiversity loss, social inequalities and geo-political tensions. This volume presents empirical studies of technologies in decline, as well as conceptual clarifications and theoretical deepening. Technologies in Decline presents an emerging research agenda for the study of technological decline, emphasising the need for a plurality of perspectives. Given that destabilisation and discontinuation are seen as a way to accelerate sustainability transitions, this book will be of interest to academics, students and policy makers researching and working in the areas of sustainability science and policy, economic geography, innovation studies, and science and technology studies.

Abstract

Gevestigde bedrijven lopen groot gevaar. Met name bedrijven die een uitgekristalliseerd proces of een specialistisch product hebben, kunnen zomaar ingehaald worden door een nieuwkomer op de markt, die met goedkope technologie of een ander proces dezelfde of zelfs hogere kwaliteit biedt. Dit is het proces van Big Bang Disruption. De bekendste voorbeelden zijn Booking.com, dat reisbureaus overbodig maakte (en nu zelf lijkt te worden ingehaald door Airbnb), en Amazon, dat de traditionele boekhandel en uitgeverij ondermijnt.
