Abstract

This chapter offers a global view of forces acting upon and being affected by professional, technical, and scientific communication (PTSC), considering the most important influences over the past 30 years or so. The chapter is modeled after The Atlantic’s occasional expert roundtables. For this chapter, the seven most recent past presidents (as of 2010) of the Council for Programs in Technical and Scientific Communication (CPTSC) described forces affecting the field of professional communication within the following categories: • Pedagogy • Technology • Globalization • Budgets • Job market We think that, as a field, we are not just affected by these forces of change, but that there is some reciprocity that, in fact, we shape these forces through the programs we construct and the teaching and research we conduct.
