Miguel García-Sancho Talks with Karin Knorr Cetina
Engaging Science, Technology, and Society 4 (2018), 246-266 DOI:10.17351/ests2018.239 “These Were Not Boring Meetings”: Miguel García-Sancho Talks with Karin Knorr Cetina MIGUEL GARCÍA-SANCHO1 UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH KARIN KNORR CETINA2 UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO Abstract In this interview, Karin Knorr Cetina evokes the first Annual Meeting of the Society for Social Studies of Science at Cornell University in 1976 as a foundational moment for science and technology studies (STS). This conference consolidated a new approach to the study of science based on the anthropological observation of scientists at work in the laboratory. Knorr Cetina argues that, despite geographically cementing in the United States, this approach originated mainly through the work of European scholars. The years that followed the Cornell meeting were marked by intense debates between the defenders of this anthropological approach and other scholars more focused on ideas than on scientific practice. Knorr Cetina describes these debates as “bloodbaths” and recalls having first coined the term “constructivist” as applied to science studies in 1977. For Knorr Cetina, STS is now shifting its attention from the production to the consumption of technoscientific knowledge. Her current interest in the financial markets and other forms of screen technologies is an example of this transition. She argues that STS needs to overcome its current fragmentation and emphasis in isolated case studies. The establishment of basic research centers with the financial resources to develop collective and long-term programs would help scholars to expand their horizons. In his following reflection, Miguel García-Sancho explores the connections between STS and travel in both a sense of intellectual shift and a more mundane meaning of physical movement. -

GIERYN Indiana University The demarcation of science from other intellectual activities-long an analytic problemfor philosophersand sociologists-is here examinedas a practicalproblem for scientists. Construction of a boundary between science and varieties of non-science is useful for scientists' pursuit of professional goals: acquisition of intellectual authority and career opportunities; denial of these resources to "pseudoscientists"; and protection of the autonomy of scientific research from political interference. -

Malte Ziewitz Talks with Michael Lynch Keywords
Engaging Science, Technology, and Society 4 (2018), 366-385 DOI:10.17351/ests2018.220 It’s Important to Go to the Laboratory: Malte Ziewitz Talks with Michael Lynch MALTE ZIEWITZ1 CORNELL UNIVERSITY MICHAEL LYNCH2 CORNELL UNIVERSITY Abstract Why would anyone still want to go to the laboratory in 2018? In this interview, Michael Lynch answers this and other questions, reflecting on his own journey in, through, and alongside the field of science and technology studies (STS). Starting from his days as a student of Harold Garfinkel’s at UCLA to more recent times as editor of Social Studies of Science, Lynch talks about the rise of origin stories in the field; the role of ethnomethodology in his thinking; the early days of laboratory studies; why “turns” and “waves” might better be called “spins”; what he learned from David Edge; why we should be skeptical of the presumption that STS enhances the democratization of science; and why it might be time to “blow up STS”––an appealing idea that Malte Ziewitz takes up in his reflection following the interview. Keywords history of STS; Michael Lynch; interview; laboratory; ethnomethodology; parasites; explosive STS MZ The field of STS now seems to be at a point where people enjoy a good origin story. Do you have one you would like to share? ML I’ll give you one that’s very familiar, which gives a lot of credit to Edinburgh. I think there’s a solid basis for this story, certainly other people will tell a different one and we all know that these things are constructed in light of where we are in the present. -
An Application of Bayesian Model Averaging with Rural Crime Data ______
International Journal of Criminology and Sociological Theory, Vol. 4, No. 2, December 2011, 683-717 Model Uncertainty in Ecological Criminology: An Application of Bayesian Model Averaging With Rural Crime Data ___________________________________________________________________________________ Steven C. Dellera Lindsay Amielb Melissa Dellerc Abstract In this study we explore the use of Bayesian model averaging (BMA) to address model uncertainty in identifying the determinants of Midwestern rural crime rates using county level data averaged over 2006-07-08. The empirical criminology literature suffers from serious model uncertainty: theory states that everything matters and there are multiple ways to measure key variables.By using the BMA approach we identify variables that appear to most consistently influence rural crime patterns. We find that there are several variables that rise to the top in explaining different types of crime as well as numerous variables that influence only certain types of crime. Introduction The empirical ecological criminology literature is vast and richly interdisciplinary. But there are at least three problem areas that have created significant confusion over the policy implications of this literature. First, the theoretical literature basically concludes that “everything matters” which makes empirical investigations difficult specifically related to model uncertainty. Second, there is sufficient fragility within the empirical results to cast a pall over the literature (Chiricos, 1987; Patterson, 1991; Fowles and Merva, 1996; Barnett and Mencken, 2002; Bausman and Goe, 2004; Chrisholm and Choe, 2004; Messner, Baumer and Rosenfeld, 2004; Phillips, 2006; Authors). Donohue and Wolfers (2005) along with Cohen-Cole, Durlauf, Fagan and Nagin (2009) note, for example, that the extensive empirical literature seeking to test the deterrent effect of capital punishment has yield nothing but contradictory and inconclusive results. -

Bourdieu and Latour in STS: “Let’S Leave Aside All the Facts for a While”
Bourdieu and Latour in STS: “Let’s Leave Aside All the Facts for A While” by Lee Claiborne Nelson M.A., Aarhus University, 2011 B.A., Dalhousie University, 2008 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Science and Technology Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) September 2014 © Lee Claiborne Nelson, 2014 Abstract Through the lens of the English-speaking Science and Technology Studies (STS) community, the relationship between Pierre Bourdieu and Bruno Latour has remained semi-opaque. This thesis problematizes the Anglo understanding of the Bourdieu-Latour relationship and unsettles the resolve that maintains the distance that STS has kept from Bourdieu. Despite many similarities between these two scholars, Bourdieu has remained a distant figure to STS despite his predominance in disciplines from which STS frequently borrows and the relevance of his corpus to topics dear to the heart of STS. This is in part due to Latour's frequent criticisms of Bourdieu by name, Latour’s philosophical disagreements with Kant and neoKantians, and Latour’s prestige in STS, and partially due to Bourdieu’s somewhat indirect or orthogonal ways of addressing natural and physical sciences and technology. Due to the fact that the writings of both needed to be translated from the original French to be received by Anglo audiences, important cultural, stylistic, and rhetorical nuances were lost, mistranslated, or not translated across the linguistic and geographical divides. Including these distinctions is invaluable to understanding their relationship and further weakens the justification for Bourdieu's absence from STS. -

FORUM: QUALITATIVE Volume 3, No. 3, Art. 15 SOCIAL RESEARCH September 2002 SOZIALFORSCHUNG Signing for Reflexivity: Constructionist Rhetorics and Its Reflexive Critique in Science and Technology Studies Tarja Knuuttila Key words: Abstract: I argue that reflexivity should not be seen as being primarily about the relationship of reflexivity, Science scientific writing to the realities studied—as it is often understood. In trying to establish this point I and Technology examine the discussion about reflexivity in science and technology studies (STS). The STS reflexiv- Studies, ists claimed that the relativist and constructionist STS undermined reflexively themselves by argu- representation, ing that all knowledge is situated and socially constructed. In the face of this reflexive problematics constructionism, they suggested that "new literary forms", which manifest the constructed nature of scientific text, relativism should be adopted. It seems to me that this program of inscribing reflexivity was semiotically misguided, which contributed to its demise. On the other hand, I argue that the basic reflexive point about the paradoxicality of making general claims about the local and contingent "nature" of knowl- edge is sound and that it should have deserved more attention in the constructionist rhetoric. The second part of my paper draws some more general methodological points from the STS case presented. I am especially interested in the performative aspects of signing for methodological novelties and ask whether it is sensible to talk about "reflexive methodology". Table of Contents 1.

Waiting for Godot and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead Axel KRUSI;
SYDNEY STUDIES Tragicomedy and Tragic Burlesque: Waiting for Godot and Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead AxEL KRUSI; When Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead appeared at the .Old Vic theatre' in 1967, there was some suspicion that lack of literary value was one reason for the play's success. These doubts are repeated in the revised 1969 edition of John Russell Taylor's standard survey of recent British drama. The view in The Angry Theatre is that Stoppard lacks individuality, and that Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead is a pale imitation of the theatre of the absurd, wrillen in "brisk, informal prose", and with a vision of character and life which seems "a very small mouse to emerge from such an imposing mountain".l In contrast, Jumpers was received with considerable critical approval. Jumpers and Osborne's A Sense of Detachment and Storey's Life Class might seem to be evidence that in the past few years the new British drama has reached maturity as a tradition of dramatic forms aitd dramatic conventions which exist as a pattern of meaningful relationships between plays and audiences in particular theatres.2 Jumpers includes a group of philosophical acrobats, and in style and meaning seems to be an improved version of Stoppard's trans· lation of Beckett's theatre of the absurd into the terms of the conversation about the death of tragedy between the Player and Rosencrantz: Player Why, we grow rusty and you catch us at the very point of decadence-by this time tomorrow we might have forgotten every thing we ever knew. -
