In “A Cyborg Manifesto”, Haraway discusses the relationship between science and technology and their impact on society, specifically on women. She argues that women have been oppressed by both science and technology, and that they need to be liberated from these oppressions. In order to do this, she proposes a new way of thinking about science and technology, one that is based on socialist-feminist principles. Haraway begins by discussing the history of science and technology, and how they have been used to control and oppress women. She then goes on to discuss the role of women in the development of science and technology, and how they have been able to use these technologies to their own advantage. Finally, she argues that we need to create a new way of thinking about science and technology, one that is based on equality and justice.
