Thu, August 30, 2:00 to 3:30pm, ICC, E5.4

Session Submission Type: Open Panel

Abstract

Knowledge has been a central focus in Science and Technology Studies for quite some time, in particular its production and dissemination. To talk about the latter, STS scholars have developed concepts like boundary objects, immutable mobiles, and trading zones; concepts that draw attention to the knowledge objects that offer flexibility or stability or are being exchanged. This open panel explores new and other ways of in detail tracing the everyday practices, structures, and relations that make knowledge travel from one site to another.This session adresses important aspects of co-production of knowledge.
