- Lucy Suchman is a Professor of Anthropology of Science and Technology in the Department of Sociology at Lancaster University, in the United Kingdom. Her current research extends her longstanding critical engagement with the field of human-computer interaction to the domain of contemporary war fighting, including problems of ‘situational awareness’ in military training and simulation, and in the design and deployment of automated weapon systems. At the center of this research is the question of whose bodies are incorporated into military systems, how and with what consequences for social justice and the possibility for a less violent world. Suchman is a member of International Committee for Robot Arms Control and the author of the blog dedicated to the problems of ethical robotics and 'technocultures of humanlike machines' Before coming to Lancaster, she worked for 22 years at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Center (PARC) in California, where she held the positions of principal scientist and manager of the Work Practice and Technology research group. While at PARC, she conducted an influential ethnographic study, using video, of office workers struggling to use a copy machine, today often referred to as one of the first instances of corporate ethnography. Suchman is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, obtaining her BA in 1972, MA in 1977, and Doctorate in Social and Cultural Anthropology in 1984. While at Berkeley, she wrote her dissertation on the work practices of accountants. She studied procedural office work to understand how it was similar to and different from a program, assumptions around the work, and how the work informed the design of these systems. (en)
- Lucy Suchman est une anthropologue et sociologue britannique d'origine américaine. Elle est professeur d'anthropologie des sciences et de Science and technology studies au département de sociologie de l'université de Lancaster. Avant d'enseigner à Lancaster, elle occupait le poste de scientifique en chef et directrice du Work Practice and Technology area au Xerox PARC de Palo Alto (Californie). Dans son ouvrage intitulé Plans and Situated Actions: The Problem of Human-machine Communication (1987), elle fournit les bases intellectuelles au champ des « human-computer interaction » (HCI). Elle soutient la thèse que l'interaction est un phénomène anthropologique où l'action humaine est constamment construite et reconstruite en fonction d'interactions dynamiques avec les mondes matériel et social. Sa théorie de la cognition située (situated cognition) insiste sur l'importance de l'environnement comme étant partie intégrale du processus cognitif. Suchman est également l'auteur de contributions importantes à l'analyse ethnographique, à l'analyse conversationnelle et aux techniques de design participatif pour le développement des systèmes informatiques interactifs.
