About :
In this episode, Laura questions the validity of the expression “we can’t stop progress”. Is it so obvious? Why are new technologies, like 5G, often contested? Is progress always desirable, whatever its social or environmental implications? François Jarrige, a historian of science at the University of Burgundy, explains that technical innovations have often encountered opposition and that none are inevitable. He criticizes in particular the “technosolutionist” ideology, according to which technological innovation could solve all ecological, social, cultural and political problems. “The idea is not to be for or against technology, it is to invent other technical systems in other social and democratic contexts,” he summarizes. Also with Emmanuel Umpala, director of the African Observatory of Natural Resources.
