The textbook offers basics, methods and tools for Computer Science & Society. It contains long-lasting theories and concepts as well as review questions and sample solutions. It is supplemented by up-to-date application examples and further tasks in the digital supplementary material. This combination ensures that the content remains theoretically sound and up-to-date at the same time.
We start with a classification of the subject in computer science. We then look at the concept of socio-technical systems and the aspects of human communication and technical systems as parts of socio-technical systems.
Subsequently, transdisciplinary perspectives of the sociology of technology, work and organizational psychology as well as ethics are examined. On this basis, we address the design of socio-technical systems in the dimensions of principles, procedures and legal framework.
The textbook is thus a contribution to the holistic design of digital transformation.
