Happy to see that the article “Institutional Arrangements in the Absence of Disciplinary Definitions: Digital Humanities in Switzerland” is out now!

Written in collaboration with @maxkemman for the Swiss Journal of Sociology’s special issue on “Digital Academia.”
New article from me:

"Discretion in research practice should perhaps not be seen as a weakness or a fault in the scientific method, but rather an integral part of it."
