Kling and the “critical”: Social informatics and critical informatics

Ronald E. Day

Journal of the American Society for Information Science and Technology, 2007, vol. 58, issue 4, 575-582

Abstract: The article discusses Rob Kling's notion of the critical and how this term is embodied in Kling's social informatics and in works of other authors, which we identify as belonging to critical informatics. Issues of method and the notion of the empirical are discussed. The importance of such analyses in regard to social life and professional education is discussed.
