Old data in new media? Problematic popularity of digital health data and consumer devices
Digital health data and devices have become increasingly popular in contemporary consumer cultures. This resonates with research on the expansion of health data ecosystems and the rise of consumerism in medicine. The proliferation of popular health devices, such as activity trackers and smartwatches, however, does not simply reinforce existing dynamics of medicalization or economization. The expansion of digital health data opens up a contested s…
Patient-Generated Data as Interventions in Doctor-Patient Relationships? Negotiating (Un)Invited Participation in Medical Consultations
Health data generated by apps and devices are increasingly popular and expected to affect various aspects of doctor-patient relationships. No longer confined to medically authorised and certified health technologies, a range of biomedical data-from heart rate to blood pressure or oxygen saturation-are captured and processed by consumer health devices. This article outlines different responses of physicians to patients collecting data with popular…
Path creation as a discursive process
When a technology is seen as the right solution to a recognized problem, the development of alternative technologies comes under threat. To secure much-needed resources, proponents of alternative technologies must, in these conditions, restart societal discussion on the status quo, a process at once technological and discursive known as ‘path creation’. In this article, we investigate discussion-restarting strategies employed by supporters of eme…
Moral impact of technologies from a pluralist perspective
We propose and illustrate a model for evaluating the moral impact of technologies from a pluralist perspective. We conceptualize technological artefacts as having moral profiles that consist of the values served and disserved along five levels of decision-making: (1) problem, (2) strategy, (3) resources, (4) product and (5) design. The notion of complex equality, directly stemming from the pluralist philosophy of Michael Walzer, can function as a…
Getting Noticed by Many
This article argues that the transformations of the popular, which began in Europe around 1800 and introduced the powerful distinction between low culture and high culture, have established a competitive distinction between the popular and the non-popular that has become dominant over the course of the 20th century. As a result, the popular is no longer either the culture of the ‘lower classes’ or the inclusion of the ‘people’ in the service of h…

Stefan Dreke bereichert diesen Forschungsstand nun mit einer Monografie, die sich akribisch dem Phnomen Kopfschmerz widmet und insbesondere auf unterschiedliche uerungsformen und Bewltigungspraktiken in unterschiedlichen sozialen Milieus abzielt. Kopfschmerzen zeigen sich der soziologischen Analyse dabei "zwischen beiden Extremen: dem Verschwinden im Alltag und der Skandalisierung" (S. 7). Dass Kopfschmerz nicht gleich Kopfschmerz ist, wissen die…
Technografie als Methode der Social- Media-Forschung
Technografische Anstze weisen darauf hin, dass die konstitutive Bedeutung von technischen Artefakten und Infrastrukturen fr menschliche Gesellschaften sowohl konzeptuelle als auch methodische Bercksichtigung in deren Erforschung finden muss. Damit betonen sie, dass menschliche Gesellschaften und Gemeinschaften

Anthropos is the international journal of anthropology and linguistics, founded in 1906 by Wilhelm Schmidt, missonary and member of the Society of the Divine Word (SVD). Its main purpose is the study of human societies in their cultural dimension. In honor of Wilhelm Schmidt‘s legacy, the cultivation of anthropology, ethnology, linguistics, and religious studies remain an essential component oft he Anthropos Institute – the organizational carrier…
Designing Technology, Developing Theory
We focus on collaborative activities that engage computer graphics designers and social scientists in systems design processes. Our conceptual symmetrical account of technology design and theory development is elaborated as a mode of mutual engagement occurring in an interdisciplinary trading zone, where neither discipline is placed at the service of the other and nor do disciplinary boundaries dissolve. To this end, we draw on analyses of mutual…
Liking as taste making
Much research has been conducted on how social media platforms are used as outlets of taste expression, displaying cultural preferences acquired outside the platforms. This research largely builds on the cultural sociology of Pierre Bourdieu and his analysis of taste as a medium of social distinction. We propose to shift the emphasis from the study of taste expression to an analysis of taste making on social media. This shift is occasioned by bro…
Einleitung
Ethnography and organisations
We discuss two methodological challenges for ethnographies of organisations that have become increasingly relevant, namely issues of materiality and change. Both have been addressed separately in the past and we revisit the arguments made so far in order to bring them together. The two methodological challenges are connected to empirical developments and theoretical advances in organisation studies and beyond. We argue that materiality and change…

Material Agency as a Challenge to Empirical Research
Recent years have seen an increasing interest in materiality in social research. Some might say that materiality is now back on the agenda of social research. The challenges of bringing materiality back have spurred lively debates about material agency, most of which, however, are leveled at the largely dematerialized theories of the social in the social sciences, for example, in material culture studies (Appadurai 1986; Miller 1998) as well as s…

Die Technik operiert mit. Zur Mikroanalyse medizinischer Arbeit / What Tools Do. Towards a Micro-Analysis of Medical Work
Der Beitrag untersucht die Beteiligung von Technik an medizinischen Handlungsvollzügen in der täglichen Praxis. Wie Studien zur medizinischen Alltagspraxis zeigen, ist die routinierte Nutzung von Technik im Alltag von Ungewissheit und Unbestimmtheit durchzogen. Der Beitrag schließt an diese Studien an und bezieht sich auf die aktuelle Diskussion um die Handlungsträgerschaft von Technik, um die spezifische Mitwirkung von Technik in der medizinisch…
Making sure. A comparative micro-analysis of diagnostic instruments in medical practice
Die Arzt-Patient-Beziehung
Die Begegnung zwischen Arzt und Patient ist komplex. Dies betrifft die grundlegende Asymmetrie in der Arzt-Patient-Beziehung, die, je nach Zeitgeist, von paternalistischen oder partizipativen Vorstellungen geprägt ist. Aber sie steht auch in institutionellen, bürokratischen und wirtschaftlichen Kontexten. Dieses praxisorientierte Buch ermöglicht die Reflexion der eigenen Position und die Annäherung an ein gemeinsames Behandlungsziel von Arzt und …
