Reflecting on Technology and Culture's legacy and its early commitment to social engagement, we searched for ways to introduce what the journal has on offer to new audiences. Many readers appreciate "Classics Revisted" to help contextualize the old classics in a new way. The journal's archives offer much more: hidden gems, forgotten pieces that were ahead of their time, and articles that just deserve a second look. Here, articles that appeared earlier in this journal pages will be re-read with a contemporary research theme in mind. In this way, the new feature will serve as rich addition to our scholarship. "Archives Revisted" also counters the effects of searching using databases, which help retrieve a single article quickly but do not provide any context.

In this issue, mobility historian Peter Norton, author of the classic study Fighting Traffic: The Dawn of the Motor Age in the American City (MIT Press, 2008), revisits the articles in Technology and Culture's archives that contributed to a new field of inquiry in the history of technology: mobility studies. The visit helps us remember what we already know, ponder why we didn't follow certain paths, and better articulate new contributions to Technology and Culture that ensure that it will remain a focal point for the intellectual development of the history of technology.

回顾技术和文化的传统及其对社会参与的早期承诺,我们寻求了将期刊提供给新读者的方法。许多读者欣赏“经典修订版”以新的方式帮助将旧经典背景化。该杂志的档案馆提供了更多的信息:隐藏的宝石,超前的遗忘物品以及值得再看的文章。在这里,本期刊页面较早出现的文章将根据当代研究主题重新阅读。这样,新功能将为我们的奖学金提供丰富的补充。“已归档存档”还可以抵消使用数据库进行搜索的影响,该数据库有助于快速检索单个文章,但不提供任何上下文。

在本期杂志中,行动史学家彼得·诺顿(Peter Norton)是经典研究《战斗交通:美国城市的汽车时代的曙光》(麻省理工学院出版社,2008年)的作者,重新审视了技术和文化档案中的文章,这些文章为一个新领域做出了贡献技术史研究领域:流动性研究。这次访问帮助我们记住了我们已经知道的事情,思考为什么我们没有遵循某些道路,并更好地表达了对技术和文化的新贡献,以确保它们将继续成为技术历史知识发展的重点。[结束页1196]
