Thesis advisor: Thomas Massaro / This thesis does not intend to diminish the incontestable contribution of technology in combating poverty and underdevelopment. On the contrary, this thesis is an expression of optimism when it comes to the use of technology in bringing some measure of welfare to those deprived of adequate conditions of life. At the same time, this thesis is a reflection on the meaning of those bold words: technology, welfare and condition of life. We tend to put them together very easily and cavalierly, but the link may be less than fully evident, especially if we do not have a clear idea of what conditions of life we are promoting and pursuing. / Thesis (STL) — Boston College, 2011. / Submitted to: Boston College. School of Theology and Ministry. / Discipline: Sacred Theology.
