Depuis le XVIIIe siècle, l'Occident vit au rythme des avancées technologiques : mécanisation, industrialisation et révolution informatique. Mais c'est à partir des années 1950 que ces progrès techniques finirent vraiment par engendrer une nouvelle société, celle de la consommation de masse. Pour comprendre cet extraordinaire essor des niveaux de vie, François Caron a non seulement mobilisé les instruments fournis par l'histoire des techniques et par l'économie de l'innovation, mais aussi replacé ces révolutions industrielles dans leurs contextes tout en analysant les relations d'interdépendance entre l'innovation et la demande sociale, entre l'innovation et la recherche institutionnalisée. François Caron dresse un portrait saisissant du siècle qui s'achève sur une recomposition à peu près totale des logiques économiques et sociales, provoquant une situation de crise par laquelle, une nouvelle fois, se repose la question de la finalité de la science et de la technologie.

Jean-Jacques Rosa offers an analysis of the "grand cycle" in social organization of the twentieth century, showing how the transformation in communication and information technology has led to the downfall of the old political and corporate hierarchies. He explains how today's explosion of freely available information is fueling the democratic free-market revolution and reveals its universal contemporary consequences.

Best known as the leading historian of French railways, François Caron has also done significant work on topics as varied as electricity, water and steam power, the theory of innovation, the structure of enterprise, and other aspects of economic development in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. In this volume, he brings together these different facets of his expertise in order to present a broad panorama of modern technology. Caron shows how artisanal know-how was adapted, expanded, and formalized during the three industrial revolutions that swept over Great Britain, France, Germany, and the United States in a comprehensive analysis of this long, complex, and continuous historical process, leading up to the twenty-first century. Thus, he illustrates the increasingly fruitful interaction between technological and scientific knowledge in modern times.

When electronic digital computers first appeared after World War II, they appeared as a revolutionary force. Business management, the world of work, administrative life, the nation state, and soon enough everyday life were expected to change dramatically with these machines’ use. Ever since, diverse prophecies of computing have continually emerged, through to the present day. As computing spread beyond the US and UK, such prophecies emerged from strikingly different economic, political, and cultural conditions. This volume explores how these expectations differed, assesses unexpected commonalities, and suggests ways to understand the divergences and convergences. This book examines thirteen countries, based on source material in ten different languages—the effort of an international team of scholars. In addition to analyses of debates, political changes, and popular speculations, we also show a wide range of pictorial representations of "the future with computers."
