Three theses of the future as a Science, Technology and Society Studies research object
In recent years, the future has re-emerged as a significant research topic, encompassing studies on perceptions, anticipations, imaginaries, and theoretical explorations of its nature. This article analyzes how the future is theoretically framed in Science, Technology, and Society studies (STS), and how this relates to its broader framing within futures studies. It identifies three core theses from research on futures that highlight shared ontolo…
Surging scientific capabilities in cities worldwide after significant earthquakes
Natural disasters trigger complex social chain interactions. While scholars have largely assessed their impacts on society, much less is known about how such catastrophes contribute to the development of scientific capabilities. Here, we analyze 314,753 earthquake-related scholarly documents together with metadata on 1099 significant seismic events worldwide between 1980 and 2024 to examine how earthquakes influence the entry of new scientific ca…
Opening the methodological black box in science and technology studies of the future(s). Shadows and proposals
It’s the economy, stupid
Growing distance between antagonistic groups has been increasingly observed in established democracies. This trend is often linked to income inequality and disparities arising from globalisation. Although existing work has explored these dynamics in developed countries, there is a notable gap in comprehensive analyses in developing countries, especially at the subnational level, mostly due to data availability. This paper revisits the relationshi…
Desplazando escalas y temporalidades
Dentro de una tendencia sociológica por la atención a los problemas ambientales globales, este artículo busca situar el problema de la resistencia a los antibióticos como un asunto socioecológico. Los antibióticos son una tecnología que busca detener o eliminar el crecimiento bacteriano en un individuo, sin embargo, por diversos hechos microbiológicos estas tecnologías con objetivo humano-individual tienen un efecto colectivo. Más allá de esto, l…
Redefining emergence
Emergence is central to critical realism, but there has been little attempt to develop a systematic account of this concept within the tradition. Two notable exceptions are seen in the work of Dave Elder‐Vass and Tony Lawson. However, both face problems in responding to reductionist claims and accounting for downward causation. This paper proposes contextual emergence as a robust alternative that overcomes these issues and provides a better justi…
Rearticulating Realism
In recent decades, the long-standing debate about the scientific status of the social sciences and their explanatory nature has been rearticulated through perspectivist, interpretivist, and mechanistic approaches. Whereas mechanistic approaches advocate for realism in sociological models, perspectivist and interpretivist perspectives challenge this by emphasizing the multiple interpretations and meaningful nature of social reality, as opposed to …
Does critical realism need the concept of three domains of reality? A roundtable
The concept of the three domains of reality is widely used in empirical critical realist research. However, there has been little scrutiny of how the domains are conceptualized and what they contribute to critical realism and how they should be applied in empirical research. This paper involves four arguments. First, Tom Fryer and Cristián Navarrete argue that the three domains of reality are redundant, confusing, and unsupported by Bhaskar’s the…
