The Society for Philosophy and Technology is an independent international
organization that encourages, supports and facilitates philosophically
significant considerations of technology. Founded in 1976, SPT maintains
an association with the American Philosophical Association, and holds
sessions at each of the APA's three annual regional meetings. Additionally,
the Society convenes its own international conference biennially.
SPT publishes Techné (a scientific journal that apprears three times a year ), the proceedings of
its international conferences, and the quarterly SPT Newsletter. The
Society is dedicated to the pluralistic exploration of technology, and
welcomes a variety of philosophical and other disciplinary approaches in
both its conferences and its publications.
Membership in SPT is open to individuals whose work is in keeping with the
interests of the Society—including those who have an advanced degree
(typically but not necessarily in philosophy), those who are in a
technological field, and students whose work includes philosophically
significant considerations of technology.
