Heidi Voskuhl is studying how engineers first drew up “philosophies of technology” in the period of high industrialism in Germany and the United States and examining how questions about the “consequences” of technology in society and engineers’ “social responsibilities” became matters of systematic public and semi-public debates of contemporary metaphysics, political theory, and ethics.
