disambiguation - Appropriate Technology part of the long publication (Sustainable Civilization)
Appropriate technology is a notion that has been in circulation
for some time. It is often used as a synonym for "civilian
technology." It can also mean technology with small environmental
impact, socially relevant technology, or technology that serves humyn
needs, and well.
If the open information movement ever gets off the ground in a sufficiently big way, it will be a virtual facility of technology development, as well as of course empirical research. Since the movement is founded upon principles, the question of whether technologies used or developed in the course of such activity are indeed appropriate, is appropriate.
