Missed this when it came out last year: state of the field reflections on #STS vis a vis #WeDoSTS and #MeTooSTS by @i_ngli

No time like the present for a reminder and I wonder if we will see more #STSHub formation?

OPUS 4 | Proceedings of STS-hub.de 2023: Circulations : Towards encounters amongst STS scholars in Germany

Science and Technology Studies in Germany has several decades of history. At the same time, STS has been discussed in a range of disciplinary niches; in the 2010s increasingly STS scholars called for connecting the German landscape of STS scholars. The STS-hub 2023 served this purpose, performing a conference space that served scholars' needs to meet without harshly disciplining their mode of doing STS. The Hub was to allow scholars to meet colleagues, interact and leave, without having to threaten any of the already existing STS associations, groups and networks operating within Germany. This publication collects selected panel reports and offers a book of abstracts, both serving to document the state of STS in Germany in the early 2020s

Attached: 1 image @stsing @easst Yes, there will be a panel at #EASST4S2024 with it's own merch 😀 More importantly though, it concerns all of us & the way we want to work together. Wednesday from 16-17:30, we will discuss on how to transform STS via #WeDoSTS. Stickers are available exclusively off campus, bigger bulks available for anyone who wants to distribute them at their home institutions. Respond here, find me there, ask someone who knows someone. You & the sticker(s) will find each other! #WeDoSTS @easst

Just read an inspiring letter asking how we make #WeDoSTS visible at #EASST4S24 #easst2024 #4s2024. Any ideas, dear @sts friends? Stickers, postcards, t-shirts? How can #STS be supported in engaging with #WeDoSTS and #MeTooSTS?

Dear all, could someone help out finding out how many times and by how many users the #MeTooSTS and the #WeDoSTS has been used in Twitter/X and here? Thanks!!!

Fanny Oehme for the German Research Ombudsman who together with her colleagues "advises researchers on issues of good scientific practice.

Claudia Gertraud Schwarz-Plaschg is who recently spoke out publicly about her experiences of harassment, sex discrimination, and
abuses of power within the STS community. She mobilizes the hashtags #MeTooSTS and #WeDoSTS to
raise awareness and generate collective action against this problematic status
quo—and she wants you to join her!

Really interesting analysis of conferences & how they shape/have potential to reshape a research field re inclusivity, power/knowledge. Food for thought for anyone involved in organising, esp given recent #MeTooSTS, how #WeDoSTS convs. https://twitter.com/bestqualitycrab/status/1610070724676587521?s=20

Very impressed that a total of 18 STS scholars showed up to our working group's impromptu virtual meeting to discuss future action within @stsing and beyond against harassment and power abuse in STS in Germany! #MeTooSTS and #WeDoSTS

Also, many thanks to @janalasser for sharing your expertise as founding member of the network against power abuse in science!

@i_ngli

I discussed #MeTooSTS at lenght with a non STS-related senior researcher and their point was that a lot has to do with prevention and senior scholars in power actively and continuously sensitizing themselves regarding power imbalances and intersectionality. 1/3

@tscriado @stefanlaser @AnjaKlein @i_ngli @jul_ie_m @janalasser @simulo but let’s stay mindful about what social media debates can and cannot do and resolve. So thanks again for your initiative stsing! Looking forward to March and constructive reflexive discussions 🙂 the editorial team of easst Review will host an issue in spring about #WeDoSTS #MeTooSTS
