个人简介
In his research, Kentaro studies social change and international development, especially as it is impacted by digital technology. Recent projects include an application of critical race theory to human-computer interaction, digital storytelling to support global maternal health, and a study of technology use by undocumented US immigrants.
Based on his research, Kentaro promotes the theory that for the most part, technology amplifies underlying human forces -- improving things where individuals and institutions are well-intentioned and capable, but having little or negative impact where human forces are indifferent, dysfunctional, or corrupt. Often, technology amplifies the impact of good, bad, left, right, optimistic, and pessimistic human inclinations simultaneously, leading to society's deeply ambivalent relationship with technology. Amplification offers a more balanced, but often predictive, alternative to theories that suggest that technology's impact on society is always good, or always bad, or always too complex to capture concisely.
