  Chapter 7: Human Society
Societies, like species, evolve in directions that are opened or constrained in part by internal forces such as technological developments or political traditions.
The societies of American Indians were ravaged and displaced by the diseases and warfare brought by colonists from Europe.
As a society, similarly, we are likely to attach more importance to immediate benefits (such as rapidly using up our oil and mineral deposits) than to long-term consequences (shortages that we or our descendants may suffer later).

 AI & Society Vol. 7.3
These question are very much part of the human centred debates whose origins lie in the British LUCAS Plan of the 1970s which created a framework for socially useful science and technology, and have become a focus of the research into anthropocentric systems, Cohesion and Globalisation undertaken by the FAST Programme of the EC.
The EC initiative in the area of social exclusion is a welcome sign of the international commitment to these broder societal issues and concerns.
AI and Society is committed to provide a forum for research and debate in the area of technology and social exclusion, and would welcome contributions from researchers and practitioners in all areas of human centred research, not just technology.

 The Moral Society - Chapter 7   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
In the conditions of the present-day industrial society, where the role of the intelligentsia is growing, this gap cannot but be termed suicidal.
What the Founding Fathers could not see was that bureaucratization and ideology would eventually permeate the entire society and that the personal corruption which they most feared would, in time, be a far lesser threat than the bureaucratic and ideological corruption which would paralyze the government leaders and deprive them of feedback.
If the most-aware persons in society do not have the courage to risk their bureaucratic security and the stamina to wage a political struggle to the death with the Immoral Community, they will betray the future of the entire human race.

 BOL Ch. 7--Human Society
This fact may be used to enhance the relevance of studying behavior in the context of culture, as long as the scientific study of behavior is not turned into an occasion for moralizing.
Although within any society there is usually broad general agreement on what behavior is unacceptable, the standards used to judge behavior vary for different settings and different subgroups, and they may change with time and different political and economic conditions.
Even when the majority of the people in a society agree on a social decision, the minority who disagree must be protected from oppression, just as the majority may need protection against unfair retaliation from the minority.

 7: Midnight Society flexes stage muscle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
The Midnight Society played its first bar show last weekend at The B-Side, but the local metal-core quintet is better suited for all-ages gigs.
Another reason The Midnight Society's members don't fit well with the bar scene is because they're not into drinking.
The Midnight Society brings its raw energy tonight to Fat Tuesday's, 109 W. Pacific Ave., with local rockers Mourning After and Glimpse.

 AI & Society Vol. 7.1
Inspite of the societal ruptures, epistemological, institutional, economic and social, these dogmas continue to promote the notions of 'productive functionality' ('Electronic Fordism'), and impose 'technical' limits on civic principles of social accountability and civic independence, marginalise the ethical dimension, and dictate social and economic priorities.
Perhaps it is not too late to reflect on social and human cost of the ideology of 'productive functionality' which has far too long shaped the technological and bureaucratic innovations.
These developments should refelect the new realities of Europe which is inter-regional in economic terms, and global in terms of multiculturalism and multiethincity.

 Redditch Operatic Society - Newsletter 7
Whilst this is an unusually quiet period for most members of the Society, quite a lot has been going on behind the scenes, with a number of committee and sub-committee meetings being held to discuss various aspects of Society business.
Furthermore, people who have auditioned for a part in the company are more likely to value their place in the show, and not just take it for granted.
The technicalities of it would certainly be a challenge, but this show has been available for amateur societies for a while, and has been performed successfully on stages similar in size to the Palace Theatre before.

Modern life increasingly over-rides the needs of our inner 'biological clock' and may extract a cost in terms of your health.
Modern telecommunications, air travel, late-opening shops and other facilities mean we can do, more or less, what we like when we like.
The 24/7 society gives us great freedom - but there may be a cost to your health, says Professor Russell Foster of Imperial College, London.

 Horizon - The Offical Blakes 7 Fan Club
David had a long and distinguished career – in theatre, TV, radio and film, but to Blake’s 7 fans he will always be remembered as Olag Gan, the gentle giant who he played for 17 episodes.
I’ve also had to pass on the sad news to David’s fellow Blake’s 7 cast members, and knowing that Michael Keating had probably spent the most time with him over the years, I asked if he’d like to share any thoughts with the fans, which he has kindly done.
I was sorry to have lost touch with David and his family over the years; but was delighted when Diane organized for us to all attend two events for the launch of the Blake’s 7 DVDs over the last 18 months where I had an opportunity to meet up with David and Anne.
