Technology is the usage and knowledge of tools, techniques, and crafts, or is systems or methods of organization, or is a material product (such as clothing) of these things. The word technology comes from the Greek craft the study of something, or the branch of knowledge of a discipline.
Many technological processes produce unwanted by-products, known as pollution, and deplete natural resources, to the detriment of the Earth and its environment. Various implementations of technology influence the values of a society and new technology often raises new ethical questions. Examples include the rise of the notion of efficiency in terms of human productivity, a term originally applied only to machines, and the challenge of traditional norms.
The meanings of technology changed in the early 20th century when American social scientists, beginning with Torstein Veblen, translated ideas from the German concept of Technique into technology. In German and other European languages, a distinction exists between Technique and Technologies that is absent in English, as both terms are usually translated as technology.
The word technology can also be used to refer to a collection of techniques. When combined with another term, such as medical technology, outsourcing technology, space technology, it refers to the state of the respective field's knowledge and tools. Technology can be viewed as an activity that forms or changes culture. Not all technology enhances culture in a creative way technology can also help facilitate political oppression and war via tools such as guns.
Technologies significantly affect human as well as other animal species' ability to control and adapt to their natural environments. The human species' use of technology began with the conversion of natural resources into simple tools. Technology has affected society and its surroundings in a number of ways. Various implementations of technology influence the values of a society and new technology often raises new ethical questions. Philosophical debates have arisen over the present and future use of technology in society, with disagreements over whether technology improves the human condition or worsens it.
