Description and Table of Contents
Description
In this revised edition of "Totalitarian Science and Technology", Josephson has included analysis of science and technology in such authoritarian regimes as North Korea, the People's Republic of China, and Cuba. He argues that politics plays an important role in shaping research and development in all countries, but nowhere with greater risk to citizens and the environment than in closed political systems. Students of European, Chinese, and Russian history, history of science and technology, and environmental history will find provocative and informative discussions in this book.
