Abstract

This chapter examines the links between gender and technology in the history of contemporary Western societies. It offers an interpretation of the production of gender identities and the socialisation of technology in different contexts: from industry to consumption, from material cultures to digital cultures, from innovation to use, from mobilisation to protest.
