Is it posible to live without any kind of technology?? I guess it is a difficult question because in some ways technology has done our life easier. If we are not aware about its use,it would cause us many problems. For example there are two particular things -Technophilia and technophobia- are the two extremes of the relationship between technology and society.
The latter regards technology as destructive because it leads to a process of dehumanization and believes social reliance on technology is harmful.It refers generally to a strong enthusiasm for technology, especially new technologies such as personal computers, the Internet, mobile phones and home cinema.
The former is a positive relationship, adopting technology enthusiastically, seeing it as a means to improve personal life and combat social problems. Technophobia is the fear or dislike of advanced technology or complex devices, especially computers. The term is used in the sense of an irrational fear, but others contend fears are justified. It has been observed to affect various societies and communities throughout the world. This has caused some groups to take stances against some modern technological developments in order to preserve their ideologies. In some of these cases, the new technologies conflict with established beliefs, such as personal values in simplicity and modest lifestyles.
It is not necessary for everyone to adopt technology to the extreme of being a technophile. In most libraries and schools, though, it is impossible to ignore new developments, which change the way we communicate and complete necessary tasks. The stories of people who have experienced the metamorphosis from technophobe to technophile can offer lessons for us all.
Technophobics, technophiles.
