| Autoren: | RAUNER, F. | Titel: | Industrial Culture and it's Implication for a Development Concept for a "Culture of Manufacturing" | Abstract: | A great challenge for mankind is to shape the dynamic tension and relationshipbetween the emergence of global structures and regional structures , to encourage productive cooperation. The science of cognitive anthropology provides an interdisciplinary approach to this problemby a combination of cognitive science, cultural anthropology, occupational science an engineering science.\|Industrialised countries usually have a tradition of handicraft production which forms a basis for the acquisition of the skills of technological development and transfer. Technological development can be considered as a cyclic process in which the diverging elements of the regional industrial culture, and the converging elements of the global industrial society are dynamically related. In the initial stages of design and development, cultural elements tend to dominate, in the later stages socio-industrial forces become more effective, transforming the initial divergent phase inti a convergent one. The traditional approach to product development is considered and itīs deficiencies in relation to the development of complex organizational structures are outlined. The paper concludes that the concept of "culture of manufacture" can only be developed by an interdisciplinary approach and if academic knowledge and the specific abilities and approach of appliers and users are integrated into the technology shaping process. | Herausgeber: | | Buch/Zeitschriftname: | The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology | Verlag: | Springer-Verlag | Ort: | London | Jahr: | 1997 | Jhrg.: | | BdNr.: | | HeftNr.: | | Seitenzahl: | 463-472 | ISBN/ISSN: | | Preis: | 4,00 DM | BestellNr.
