Résumé anglais |
Deployed technologies are expressed in terms of widespread networks of hierarchical organizations. Their presence or prospect may evoke fears of (and hopes for) social dependence. Combining the perspectives of organizational networks with insights from studies of large technical systems provides a basis for considering the potential for risking the political legitimacy of those involved and the challenges of institutional constancy in democratic society.
