Experimentalism and Sociology
Has society become a “real-world laboratory”? Tanja Bogusz asks this question in her book as she traces back the experimentalist approach from early American pragmatism to contemporary world society. She recommends that sociology, as a discipline, transform from a science of crisis towards an experimental science of experience, focusing on heterogeneous cooperation to overcome the epistemic disparities of our time. The speakers will discuss the b…

Citation for H. M. Collins
It is a great pleasure for me that the Society for Social Studies of Science has awarded the John Desmond Bernal Award to Professor H. M. Collins for his outstanding achievements in the study of science and particularly the sociology of scientific knowledge. Harry Collins, as we all know, has been first and foremost among those who have taken the content of natural scientific work seriously, and by doing so, have turned the sociology of science a…

Le «souci de soi» ou les «tâtonnements
Karin Knorr-Cetina The care of the self and blind variation : an ethnography of the empirical in two sciences This paper is about how sciences relate to the phenomenal world. It focusses on the construction of the empirical machineries involved in the creation of knowledge. The author adopts an ethnographic perspective and contrasts two approachs : high energy physics and molecular biology. In the first one the work of dealing with the referent i…
How Superorganisms Change
This paper suggests variation in the ways in which agreement, concurrence, conformity or stability in science is brought about, and the need to think not in terms of one model of consensus formation, but in terms of many. One variant which can be witnessed in scientific practice is exemplified in experimental high-energy physics (HEP); this variant relocates the problem in the early stages of an experiment, when the technology is fixed, the group…
Image Dissection in Natural Scientific Inquiry
Images are objects of work in the laboratory. On its face, this work is achieved through talk Yet the talk attached to these images makes reference to other images, which are drawn from varcous environments. In this article, four such environments are identified: the domain of laboratory practice; the context of invisible physical reactions; the future image as it will appear in publication; and the domain of case precedents and reference scenari…
