As societies become increasingly connected through digital technologies that are predominantly designed from Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic (WEIRD) perspectives, it is imperative that we move beyond WEIRD thinking to design more pluralistic digital futures (K. Aal, Rüller, & Wulf, 2024; Abokhodair, Skop, et al., 2024; Escobar, 2018; Rüller, Aal, et al., 2024; Rüller, Aal, et al., 2024). To do so, however, requires grappling with the inherent messiness at the intersection of technology, culture, and power. In this chapter, I explore the challenges of conducting technology research and design with non-WEIRD communities without falling prey to dynamics of power and privilege.

摘要

As societies become increasingly connected through digital technologies that are predominantly designed from Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, Democratic (WEIRD) perspectives, it is imperative that we move beyond WEIRD thinking to design more pluralistic digital futures (K. Aal, Rüller, & Wulf, 2024; Abokhodair, Skop, et al., 2024; Escobar, 2018; Rüller, Aal, et al., 2024; Rüller, Aal, et al., 2024). To do so, however, requires grappling with the inherent messiness at the intersection of technology, culture, and power. In this chapter, I explore the challenges of conducting technology research and design with non-WEIRD communities without falling prey to dynamics of power and privilege.
