Ethnography and the Corporate Encounter: Reflections on Research in and of Corporations
Businesses and other organizations are increasingly hiring anthropologists and other ethnographically-oriented social scientists as employees, consultants, and advisors. The nature of such work, as described in this volume, raises crucial questions about potential implications to disciplines of critical inquiry such as anthropology. In addressing these issues, the contributors explore how researchers encounter and engage sites of organizational p…
Inattentive, imprudent and inapt: Discovering inadequacies of ICT during life-changing events through the lens of non-users
Life-changing events (or LCEs) can alter a person's status quo and threaten well-being. Previous research investigated distinct LCEs, where participants already used technology routinely. This paper reports the results of two field studies through which we compared supports people refer to when experiencing different LCEs. Together with users of technology, our sampling included participants who specifically did not refer to online services and t…
My AI versus the Company AI: How Knowledge Workers Conceptualize Forms of AI Assistance in the Workplace

Online Place and Person-Making: Matters of the Heart and Self-Expression
In recent years, there has been a substantial take up in social software, but other than translating the vocabulary and arranging suitable payment facilities, little or no account is taken of cultural sense-making in the global deployment of these systems. We report on two studies of social software, an online dating site and a social network blog. We show that people need 'places' because it is only there persons can meaningfully be (re)presente…
