Recent literature in the ethics of technology has focused on spelling out the role of values in different fields of engineering. Value Sensitive Design (VSD), as a well-established approach, aims to systematically integrate human values into technologies and engineering products. Although there is significant attention to stakeholders in VSD, how contexts may affect what stakeholders perceive as values deserves more attention. It seems that there is an implicit tendency to universality in the studies of VSD and it is often assumed implicitly that values have the same meaning in different contexts and in different cultures.
