!! 1980s social science to the rescue:

#STS #ActorNetworkTheory

I'm supervising a graduate thesis that uses actor-network theory to explain cooling deserts in NYC. I just met with the student to go over the final version before submission, and I have to say that it is the best thesis I've ever seen. The CUNY Data Analysis and Visualization program includes both a white paper and a website, and both parts are outstanding. Wow. I'm so impressed. This is what makes teaching so satisfying.

I should be finishing my grad stats syllabus (categorical data analysis with Python) but instead I am rereading Latour.
#Sociology #ActorNetworkTheory #BrunoLatour #SocialTheory

In my data analysis class we're reading Massimo Airoldi's Machine Habitus: Toward a Sociology of Algorithms.

Tonight, I get to talk about one of my favorite sociological things: Actor-Network Theory.

Eventually managed to read #AyselSultan's @sts review in @sts_journal of Prasad Amit's (2023) #ScienceStudies Meets #Colonialism. Very helpful for my take on #STS as the review discusses how the book critically discusses #ANT #ActorNetworkTheory and #PostColonialSTS https://sciencetechnologystudies.journal.fi/article/view/136097

Gosh, what a morning @KAEEGoetheUni: trying to think with the analysis of the IPCC by Neyland & Coopmans (drawing on #ethnomethodology and #ActorNetworkTheory*) about the #IPCC** in an #environmentalSTS course. Ok, I get it, there is an issue with #acronyms in #teaching #sts. But I love it so much :)
