Folks, does any one have a digital copy of Knorr-Cetina's and Michael Mulkay's Science Observed? The book is out of print, it seems that no library around has it and my students need it! I could only find single chapters online.

With the right structures in place, we can transform the government from a passive issuer of regulations and transfer payments into an active builder of an equitable and sustainable economic future.

The governments are resuming talks about a system of payments using the local currencies in Mercosur. The system was devised in 2014.

Do LLMs consider heteroglossia in their models? If so, how they deal with that? And how they revolve around indexical expressions? #gptchat #LLM #indexicality #heteroglossia
Understanding the relationship between crisis and sovereignty on the one hand, and between crisis-claims and their audiences on the other, sheds new light on the narrative and performative effects of crisis.
In this special issue, we engage with this new body of work on crisis by distinguishing between two models—sovereign and distributed. While the sovereign model of crisis fleshes out the link between crisis and political power, the distributed model points to the social fragmentation and confusion that crisis-claims can provoke when they are made outside established institutional channels—when they are distributed across disparate audiences.
