[ send me this paper ]
Science and technology make up a great portion of the way the world is able to function today. For every decision made to incorporate a technological innovation an ethical decision must also be made - whether the technology fits within the society's definition of ethical development, or has man crossed the line into "playing God"? A world culture is emerging that must be willing to negotiate the different cultural and religious differences in an ethical analysis of technodecision making that must include specialized experts as well as be expanded to include all citizens in a high-science, high-technology society. The rate of technological development is to a great extent, a reflection of societal beliefs and norms. The Eastern world has lagged behind in developing technology for a myriad of complex reasons. This 30 page paper proposes a three tiered approach to understanding the differences between the rate of technological development between Western and Eastern cultures, focusing on Eastern, development - India, and Hindu philosophy, in particular.
