Technology Vs Pragmatic Technology
Innovative Technologies always makes progress of
the society, It makes human lives better and it makes better society. When
technology can solve real world problems that technology become a pragmatic Technology.
"Absolute control of environing conditions impossible.
The domain of meaning is not, and cannot be, coextensive with the domain of experience.
There is always an experiencable but unknowable residue. Moreover, a disaster ,either
natural or artificial, could terminate human life. On the positive side, however,
Dewey thought that would constitute great progress if human beings would begin
to think of themselves as responsible for their own individual and corporate
features".(Page 106,John Dewey's Pragamatic Technology by Larry A.Hickman).
Every generation human beings face different
problems. Generation wise problems are also changing because of society and
nature always change. This universe, nature is dynamic and it is not stagnate.
And developing and developed world problems are
also different. Problems are different because of geography, culture, population, resources,
education standards, politics and economical conditions.
Some techno
solutions are universal, it
applicable on entire globe everywhere because of human nature is same in
the entire world and human problems also same in the entire globe.
Technology is a pure science, it can experiment
with all ideas. Whether it is fictional and fantasy or fact and reality. No
need to solve human beings real world problems. Because it can imaginative and
creative.
On the other hand, Pragmatic technology must solve
real world problems. It can alter and upgrade all the time. It can create and
destroy.
