Computers and the Postindustrial Society: Symbiosis or Information Tyranny?

Journal of the American Society for Information Science, 1982, vol. 33, issue 5, 302-307

Abstract: We are moving toward a postindustrial society in which knowledge and information are strategic resources. Central to this society are information, communication, and computer technology implying social changes, which in turn imply major policy questions. There is a need to consider the present and future effect of large‐scale computerization on the individual's rights, style of life, method of work, and the ways in which society and institutions operate.
