| Abstract: | Calvert analyzes every company in its socially screened portfolio for work place practices, environmental impact, community relations, product safety and benefit, and international human rights. Avoidance and positive screens are used on each issue. This paper reviews these screens with socially responsible high technology companies. It illustrates a host of emerging issues including distributed equity and social justice, community impact, and sustainability. Any sufficiently advanced technology, it is said, is indistinguishable from magic. The breathtaking abilities of new electronics technologies to perform miracles of computation continues to astonish. |
