摘要

The research topic is on voice as place in science and technology (S&T) development. The specific research focus is on women in S&T development who are working to improve living conditions in Jamaica.; The people of Jamaica have a longtime involvement with the United Nations (U.N.) to better understand how to build S&T capabilities in developing countries. In 1990, they made a national commitment to pursue S&T development by proclaiming their own national S&T policy that emphasizes economic and social improvements.; An interpretive anthropological study was conducted from a critical hermeneutic orientation to create and reflect upon research conversations with thirteen women working in Jamaica as educators, administrators, leaders, and entrepreneurs in key areas of science or technology. The study explores three primary inquires: what gives voice its place in identity?; what gives voice its place in learning?; and in what ways does care emerge through voice as place in building national S&T capabilities? The study reveals the voices of the women in the context of their work and Jamaica's national S&T policy.; The study concludes that the work of the women is consistent with the aim of the national S&T policy. The theoretical and descriptive analysis culminates in an assessment that recognizes many realities and possibilities discovered by the women. The study reveals practical ideas from the women for national S&T policy development, for education/curriculum development, and for Jamaican youth considering a career in science or technology. Social and cultural issues are also revealed with implications on S&T development. Further public dialogue and research is recommended in these particular areas.; In summary, the study contributes to Jamaica's national and the international discourse on how to aim and sustain the work of S&T development so as to improve living conditions in a developing nation.
