Science, Technology & Human Values (STHV)
Journal Descriptions
Science, Technology & Human Values is a leading interdisciplinary journal in the field of science and technology studies (STS), published bimonthly by SAGE Publications. Since its launch in the early 1970s, the journal has served as a vibrant forum for research that critically examines the intersections of science, technology, and society. Its scope covers empirical research and conceptual analysis that explore how scientific knowledge and technological innovations influence human values, cultural norms, public policy, political structures, and ethical debates. Articles bridge multiple disciplines — including sociology, philosophy, political science, anthropology, history, and environmental studies — to address topics such as the social implications of technological change, ethics in science and technology, public understanding and engagement with science, and the governance of emerging technologies. The journal emphasizes work that is intellectually rigorous, socially relevant, and theoretically innovative, making it a core publication for scholars interested in how scientific and technological developments are embedded in broader cultural and political contexts. As a peer-reviewed and internationally recognized outlet, it attracts contributions from researchers around the world and fosters critical dialogue on the dynamic relationships between technology and human values.
