you missed out on sts

Hi, had a look at your interesting thesis!
But was a bit surprised that you did not at all cite any of the science and technology study people and actor network theorists (latour, law, callon, moll). When I think of anthropology and technology these people come to my mind first. See e.g. http://www.lancs.ac.uk/fass/centres/css/ant/ant.htm#tec
But interesting topic, I have to say :).

That's right, I did not cite these ANT theorists like Latour. With my focus on SCOT and appropriation (Aneignung), I tried to emphasize the interpretative flexibility of a technological artifact available to users of this technology and the effects on culture. I read into Latour as well as Law, but I did not find it necessary to discuss, because with the mobile phone it does not help much to understand the different uses and cultural contexts of this technology. Also ANT was not discussed much in literature about the mobile phone.
I thus focused especially on appropriation, because this framework (Spittler, Beck, Hahn ..) works quite well to study technology.

Thanks for the link anyway!
