CFP: Collaboration as Social Practice - Science Studies Symposium 2022, June 9-10
**CALL FOR PAPERS***
Collaboration as Social Practice Collaborative Research Environments and Engagements Across Disciplinary and Institutional Divides
Science Studies Symposium 2022, Helsinki, Finland, June 9-10 2022, organized by the Finnish Society for Science and Technology Studies (FSSTS)
See the symposium website: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/conferences/collaboration-social-practice
The necessity of interdisciplinary research collaboration and partnering across professional and institutional divides is mainstream discourse in today’s academic culture. Funders are keen to support collaboration for innovative results and effective scientific and technological solutions that match the complexity of societal problems. Below this general desire for interdisciplinarity, the aspects, benefits, and problems of actuating collaboration across disciplinary and institutional divides are a matter of situated practices, conventions, and tacit understandings of how collaboration can be made to work – if it can be made to work.
Are these engagements and collaborations delivering what they promise? What are the promises? How do we collaborate? What triumphs, difficulties and challenges are typical to these arrangements in practice?
Keynotes: Petri Ylikoski, University of Helsinki Nicholette Priaulx and Martin Weinel, Cardiff University Salla Sariola, University of Helsinki Antti Silvast, Technical University of Denmark (DTU)
