A new concept of technology with systemic-purposeful perpsective: theory, examples and empirical application [PDF]

arXiv, 2019
Although definitions of technology exist to explain the patterns of technological innovations, there is no general definition that explain the role of technology for humans and other animal species in environment. The goal of this study is to suggest a new concept of technology with a systemic-purposeful perspective for technology analysis.
