Abstract

TThis chapter presents the sociotechnical value map (STVM) as a method to
map out values in a sociotechnical system. To identify these values, the publics
that are or can be related to a given technology must be traced. The STVM
combines elements from evolutionary theory of technology development and
value sensitive design (VSD). It consists of the following steps: first, the relevant
societal stakeholders are identified; second, VSD helps us design values into
a technology. These findings allow us to reconstruct a sociotechnical public.
The chapter examines the elements that make up a STVM, and its underlying
theoretical considerations. It concludes by a short discussion on the benefits
and shortcomings of the method, and on the reception of students.
