Abstract

In this multi-authored essay, nine anthropologists working in different parts of the world take part in a conversation about the interfaces between anthropology and STS (science and technology studies). Through this conversation, multiple interfaces emerge that are heterogeneously composed according to the languages, places, and arguments from where they emerge. The authors explore these multiple interfaces as sites where encounters are also sites of difference-where complex groupings, practices, topics, and analytical grammars overlap, and also exceed each other, composing irregular links in a conversation that produces connections without producing closure.

Essays:

Spaces of equivocation: Some generative interfaces between anthropology and STS in Japan (Atsuro Morita)

Who’s in the room?: The importance of multidisciplinary spaces for anthropology and STS (Heather Anne Swanson)

The empirical is everywhere (Casper Bruun Jensen)

On dealing in fragments (Tess Lea)

Doing differences together (Mario Blaser)

Gimi worldings (Paige West)

Comment on Mario Blaser and Paige West (Casper Bruun Jensen)

Beyond laughter: Nordic interventions (Marianne E. Lien and Gro B. Ween)

Interface as ethnographic site that is also method (Marisol de la Cadena)

Toward a nonanthropocentric pluriversal anthropology? (Margaret Wiener)

Comments on Marisol de la Cadena and Margaret Wiener (Atsuro Morita)
