FRIVERA|GSTS|2020 FRIVERA|GSTS|  Infographic STS Style AS A DISCIPLINE (STS) is the study of how society, politics, and culture affect scientific research and technological innovation, and how these, in turn, affect society, politics and culture. STS is a relatively recent discipline, originating in the 60s and 70s, following Kuhn’s The Structure of Scientific Revolutions (1962). STS was the result of a “sociological turn” in science studies.
