A conjunctural analysis of the origins of ‘embedded Elsi’ in U.S. genomic medicine
Calls to identify, explore, and address ethical and social issues as part of the design and implementation of scientific research are now widespread. One way of doing so is through an embedded approach, where ethical, legal, and social implications (ELSI) researchers are situated within larger scientific research studies. We trace the emergence of the ‘embedded ELSI’ approach to integration alongside the development of genomic medicine. In partic…
Troubling the Anthropocene: Donna Haraway, Science Fiction, and Arts of Un/Naming
This article takes Donna Haraway's Staying With the Trouble: Making Kin in the Chthulucene as a point of departure for troubling the largely uncontested acceptance of the Anthropocene as a matter of scientific 'fact.' Our approach is informed by our methodological commitments to understanding writing as a mode of inquiry and our preference for diffraction (rather than reflection) in conceptualizing practices of reading and critique. The article i…
Words ( are ) matter: Generating material-semiotic lines of flight in environmental education research assemblages (with a little help from SF)
We address the aims of this Special Issue by exploring, critiquing, and responding constructively to the emergence and potential significance of new materialist thought in environmental education research and the broader theoretical landscape in which such research is situated. We offer some productive possibilities for advancing postparadigmatic materialist theorising in environmental education research by deploying concepts selected from Deleuz…
Future Child: Pedagogy and the Post-Anthropocene
For many, the Anthropocene foreshadows the apocalypse: a fertile terrain to speculate about the future, which can displace the now. We aim to reconceptualize this era, drawing inspiration from those working to imagine possible eras for the post-Anthropocene—imaginaries that do not deny the material histories and urgencies of the present. In particular, we seek to transform the ways children are figured in this epoch. In this conceptual essay, we …
It takes more than two to (multispecies) tango: Queering gender texts in environmental education
Using the figuration of queer tango, we conceive this essay as a performance that responds to three Canadian Journal of Environmental Education articles, each of which calls for the creation and circulation of more queer scholarship in environmental education. We explore Vagle's (2015 Vagle, M. D. (2015). Curriculum as post-intentional phenomenological text: Working along the edges and margins of phenomenology using post-structuralist ideas. Jour…
