Acting, predicting and intervening in a socio-hydrological world (2013, background): “As noted above, with a commitment to excluding politics from science, so that scientifically derived knowledge is deemed authoritative, we are actually making a political statement, because we are transferring considerable power to those invested as scientists (Latour, 1999b).”
Drawing to reason and learn in science (2020, background): “These understandings find form, following Latour (1999), as inscriptions that are portable and reified, and open to communal inspection.”
The success of a policy model: Irrigation management transfer in Mexico (2006, background): “Such images allude to cultural myths, acquired tastes, and ‘dreams of utter control’ among the epistemic community within policy circles (Chambers, 1988 ; Law, 1994 ; Latour, 1999 : 18).”
Impediment to insight to innovation: understanding data assemblages through the breakdown–repair process (2016, background): “…illuminates how technologies can be seen as black boxed, ‘ silent ’ intermediaries until occasions such as breakdown reveal them to be mediators acting in visible and complex associations with one another (Latour, 2005), a phenomenon that Latour has referred to as depunctualization (Latour, 1999).”
Knowledge, learning and development: a post-rationalist approach (2006, background): “Translation challenges the diffusion model (of epidemiological origin) that traces movement as innovation4 (Latour, 1986; Alter, 2002; Brown, 2002).”
On the discrepancy between objects and things: An ecological approach (2016, background): “…it must be constantly repaired (Gell, 1996); a speed-bump has to be routinely repaved if it is to enforce civic behavior on reckless drivers (Latour, 1999); or the silver of wellheeled families has to be constantly polished if it is to keep working as an effective index of class distinction…”
Actor-Network Theory (2014, methodology): “Because we have delegated functions to them, they possess (a type of) agency (Garrety & Badham 2004, p. 194-5, citing Latour 1993, 1999).”
Powerful City Networks: More than Connections, Less than Domination and Control (2010, methodology): “Much of the groundwork for this way of thinking about networks has been put in place by actor-network theory, principally the contributions of Bruno Latour (1987, 1999a, 1999b, 2005) and Michel Callon (1986, 1992, 1998), together with John Law (1986a, 1986b, 1991, 1999).”
The textility of making (2010, background): “For the latter too, if the observational thread is lost, then the description falters. at Bar Ilan U niversity on Septem ber 13, 2010 cje.oxfordjournals.org D ow nloaded from that of the traffic policeman (Latour, 1999, pp. 186–90).”
Artifacts and cultures-of-use in intercultural communication (2003, background): “Focusing on the relationships between cultures-of-use and intercultural human communicative activity mediated by the Internet, I suggest, inspired by Latour (1993, 1999) and Tomasello (1999), that cultures-of-use and mediational artifacts co-evolve over time.”
Crossing Boundaries Between School and Work During Apprenticeships (2012, background): “For Latour (1999), a machine can become a black box for the user when this machine acts as one piece: “when many elements are made to act as one, that is what I will now call a black box.””
Tourism in times of crisis: exploring the discourse of tourism development in Iceland (2010, background): “The mutation is thus a result of the associations made, and the discourse becomes what Latour (1999) refers to as a ‘circulating reference’.”
Drawing to Learn in Science (2011, background): “In externalizing private knowledge more permanently, visual representation is one way to enable broader dissemination (4).”
Population Ageing and Socially Assistive Robots for Elderly Persons: The Importance of Sociodemographic Factors for User Acceptance (2012, methodology): “For example, the script concept based on Akrich [10], which is routed in the Actor Network Theory [11], implies that notions of scripts are used to conceptualise older technology users.”
Learning Through Constructing Representations in Science: A framework of representational construction affordances (2012, background): “While clearly the same idea in science can be represented variously, no shared scientific idea exists separate from its representation, as noted by Lemke (2004) and others.”
Matters of care in technoscience: Assembling neglected things (2011, background): “It is situated in a continuity of conceptual efforts aimed at de-objectifying scientific matters of fact (Latour, 1993, 1999).”
Carrots and Rainbows: Motivation and Social Practice in Open Source Software Development (2012, background): “However, a fundamentally different and complementary approach is required to account for gaps we identified; research on motivation in OSS development neglected important aspects of the social practice as a context for motivation, including the ethics and virtues that guide the work of engineers and”
