Whitworth, Brian; Liu, Tong (2011) : Etiquette-Based Sociotechnical Design In: Hayes, Caroline C.; Miller, Christopher Allan (Hg.): Human-computer etiquette: Cultural expectations and the design implications they place on computers and technology: Boca Raton, Fla.: CRC Press, S. 323-350

Abstract: This chapter argues that etiquette applies not just to the people who use computers but also to how the technology is designed. When technical systems underlie social environments, as in chat, social networks, instant messages, virtual worlds, and online markets, they must support social acts that give synergy, not antisocial acts that destroy it. Politeness, defined as the free giving of choice to others in social interactions (Whitworth, 2005), or etiquette, are critical examples. If we don’t consider community good when designing socio-technical systems, we should not be surprised if we don’t get it. While etiquette hasn’t traditionally been taught in software design courses, we argue that it should be. E-mail spam illustrates what happens when sociotechnical design goes wrong, when it ignores the basic principles ofconversation etiquette. Channel e-mail design illustrates an etiquettebased design in the illustrative case of e-mail, but the principles proposed are generic to all sociotechnical contexts.

Wolff, Ernst (2010): Technicity of the Body as Part of the Socio-technical System. The Contributions of Mauss and Bourdieu. In: Theoria 76 (2), S. 167-187. DOI: 10.1111/j.1755-2567.2010.01067.x

Abstract: The aim of this article is to contribute to a philosophy of technics by proposing an answer to the following question: what is the nature of the human body as an element of technical systems? The argument focuses on an examination of the phenomenon of bodily technics. This examination is guided by the conviction that Pierre Bourdieu's social theory can be read as contributing significantly to an answer to the above question. However, since Bourdieu's project is not directly aimed at enhancing our understanding of the technicity of the human body, a reading of Marcel Mauss's seminal essay on bodily technics is also discussed to set the stage for an examination of the technicity of the body and to justify the manner in which Bourdieu's theory is read here. Through a careful study of the key notions of habitus, field, practice, time and rule, Bourdieu's social theory is systematically presented and explored for its contribution to an understanding of the question raised in this article. In conclusion, a number of remarks are made on how the relation between Mauss and Bourdieu is to be understood and on the argumentative strength of Bourdieu's work.
