| 520 | _aAlthough social robots are promoted as a technological solution for ageing populations, their development and integration are challenging. This paper analytically reviews social science research on social robots for elder care in two different socio-economic and political contexts, the Netherlands and India, focusing on socio-technical imaginaries in media, research, and policy. Grounded in science and technology studies, the notion of socio-technical imaginaries presumes the mutual shaping of technologies and people’s imagination. However, socio-technical imaginations of states, roboticists and the intended robot users are not always aligned. –Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2026/9/ageing-health-and-social-security/socio-technical-imaginaries-social-robots-older.html | ||
